paste, lentils, green and red pepper, garbanzo and kidney beans. Add the
tomatoes, breaking them up against the side of the pot as you do. Add and
stir in the chili powder, cumin and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to moderate. Cover. Cook 45 minutes or until lentils are tender
but not mushy. Add more water if necessary. Adjust seasoning to taste.
