4 cups vegan broth or water*
1½ cups, red lentils
14z can salt-free organic tomatoes, diced

I made this tonight with extra veggies and garbanzos like you showed on the YT video. We absolutely love it and expect it to be a regular in our favorites rotation. Thanks for making Ethiopian food available to us again. We also love how your pepperoni spice makes our homemade vegan seitan pepperoni pizza taste like our old favorite heart-killing version. Thanks.
