Lentils and Quinoa with Coconut Milk -- quick, vegan, down and dirty

This is one of those quicky meals that gets ready in a hurry and tastes great. Additionally, it's amazing for you. And at the rate at which my 4 year old shovelled it in, I would say is kid-friendly. The coconut milk makes it sweet, me thinks. Anyway, my handsome husband went back for more, and a good time was had by all. Unfortunately not in the quicky sense. Although this can definitely be a meal by itself, I would be wont to pair it with sautéed broccoli or some such staple. We're kinda brassica addicts  in this household.
