Instructions: Saute in a very little liquid (of choice)1/2 medium onion until soft. Add and stir for a minute or two the rice, lentils and cinnamon. Add 2 1/2 cups broth of choice, tomato juice can be used, I use V-8 which makes it very tasty. Bring to boil, cover tightly, turn heat very low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix in 1/2 cup raisins. Mixture should still have a little liquid, if not, add 1/4 cup. Place in oiled or Pam sprayed baking dish. Cover and bake for 20 to 30 minutes.

Serves 4 to 6.

This is easily adapted for 30 servings. Change to 3 onions, chopped, 4 cup raw rice, 1 cup lentils, 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. 4 cups V-8 and 4 c water or broth. 1 1/2 cup raisins. Bake 45 minutes.
