Is there a substitute for soy? I am told to use it in moderation with my history of cancer. Thanks. Wendy

Last night I revisited my favorite vegetarian dinner. The only change I made to the Original Recipe was that I used a can of drained and rinsed black beans instead of garbanzo beans because my 8 year old doesn't like garbanzos. I also added about a cup of shredded butternut squash. Trader Joe's sells the spirals next to the carrots and I figured it was a great way to get a few more vitamins into the kids. If you can't find the already peeled and either cubed squash or shredded squash you can add some sweet potato to bulk up the meal. It tasted WONDERFUL. The red onion is important --- don't email me and ask to use a yellow one. Because if you do I'll probably say it's fine but I'd really rather you use a red one. ;HONEY LENTILS and BEAN DINNER serves 6, over white or brown rice. Freezes well. 1 1/2 cups lentils ((brown or green) 3 cups water 1/2 red onion, diced 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed 1/2 cup shredded or chopped carrot 1 cup peeled and cubed or shredded butternut squash 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon dried mustard 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger 2 tablespoons soy sauce (La Choy or Tamari Wheat Free are GF) 1/3 cup honey (and maybe another 1 tablespoon later to taste) 1 dried bay leaf or 2 fresh The Directions. I used a 4 quart crockpot. The awesome thing about lentils (actually, there are a few awesome things) is that they are cheap, full of fiber, and you don't have to pre-soak them. You really should rinse them off, though. Put the lentils into your crockpot. Add the water. Chop up the onion, and add along with the carrots and squash. Drain and rinse the beans and add. Stir in the dried mustard, salt, and ginger. Add the soy sauce and honey. Stir to combine. Float the bay leaf (ves) on top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-5. Taste. If desired, stir in an extra tablespoon of honey. Serve with white or brown rice. DELICIOUS. I was so happy to watch the kids lick their bowls clean!! -) "If we could look into each other's hearts and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care." -Marvin J.
