Mexican Rice and Lentils

Coming from California and now living in Northeastern France, I miss mexican food! But I don't miss the calories...I make my own taco seasoning so I can adjust the quantities, eliminate msg or other addives (sugar etc) and it isn't available here. This tastes like a super healthy version of chili, plus there are all those leeks and carrots tossed in for added vegetables! Hope you enjoy!
