Lentils with Garlic & Rosemary

More lentils.  I wanted something that was less soupy and more stewy.  I also really like garlic.  I figured that this Lentils with Garlic and Rosemary recipe from Cooking Light was worth a shot.

The end result is almost exactly what I was looking for.  As it turns out, it was a whole lot of what I was looking for.  As much as I hated to do it, and as much as I heard my mother's voice chiding me about starving kids in Africa, I actually had so much of this dish leftover that I had to throw it away before I was able to eat it all.  For a family of 4 this recipe would be good for two meals each.  For a single person, even cutting this recipe in half would be a lot of food.

Another very strange thing about this recipe is the amount of onions it calls for.  When I was throwing all the ingredients into the crock pot, I had to go back and check to see that it wasn't called "Lentils with Onions and Onions." Don't worry, though, this actually turns out fine and doesn't have an overbearing onion flavor.
