I read your recipe and have just set a pot of lentils on the stove to boil. Thanks for the suggestion. We’re having cabbage on the grill tonight with salmon, and I thought the lentils would make a great side dish.

Thanks!

Yum! I made stuffed zucchini last night (I’ll post a great recipe under the “zucchini” post) and was trying to think of a different type of side to make for dinner. As soon as I saw this post, I was out looking for lentils. These were great,flavored pefectly. And you were right, I did need to add more water throughout cooking. With lentils costing just 95 cents a bag and being so nutritious, these will become a staple in our home. Thanks!

yuk. i do not like beans, legumes, not so much. in fact, my mom makes some supposedly world class baked beans, and in my 38 years on this planet, i’ve never tasted them.

as a kid, the folks would offer me money just to try a baked bean. i never folded.

as an adult, i have tried different bean recipes, and did like one puerto rican rice and beans dish a friend made. maybe i’ll give this lentil recipe of yours a shot.
