"Cloth napkins last years, not only 50 uses. Many of my readers use terry washcloths or make their own cloth napkins. A reader, Erika, from Florida said: “Got scissors and some old T-shirts? You can go paper-free.” At my home, I often buy secondhand cloth napkins at thrift stores (big surprise, huh), add them to my regular laundry load, sometimes use homemade laundry soap and don’t have to wash and bleach after minimal use. I can choose to hang dry them, too."
I also found this recipe for Sloppy Jens on the same site. I think that you'll need the cloth napkins with this recipe.
Sloppy Jens
1 cup uncooked lentils
1 yellow onion, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon salt
8-ounce can tomato sauce
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon vinegar
hamburger buns
Cook lentils according to package directions. Set aside when done. In a large skillet, saute onion and pepper in the oil, until softened. Add the garlic. Saute. Add the cooked lentils, chili powder, oregano and salt, and mix to combine. Add the tomato sauce and tomato paste. Mix in mustard, brown sugar and vinegar. Cook for about 10 minutes until heated through. Serve on hamburger buns.
