Mark and I really liked the lentil bake. Freya is on a dinner strike right now, so she can offer no comment.
ReplyDeleteDelicious! Just had this for lunch and it really satisfied.
ReplyDeleteyeah, it didn't turn out as bad as I thought it was going to... I think the lentils could have used about 30 more minutes of cook time, but I think I'll make it again sometime!
ReplyDeleteWe liked it! Yum! I think I'm going to try our leftover lentils on a sandwich.
