1 Place water and lentils in a saucepan and cook, covered, until lentils are tender, about 45 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2 Meanwhile, place the vegetable broth, onions and garlic in a non-stick pan. Cook and stir occasionally for about 5 minutes, until onions are soft. Add mushrooms and cook 5 minutes more.
