My kids like lentils!!!!! Try it! It's a veg too!

[Bouquetsofdynomite]

Merchant Gourmet ready-to-eat lentils in a foil pouch from Waitrose (have seen them in Morrisons though) - fantastic things! Stirred them in to pasta with peas and sweetcorn, cold on a 'salad' of grated carrot, cheese and mayonnaise.
Even my DH likes them and he hates all things beanie.

But do beware:

Beans and other pulse vegetables - such as kidney beans, lentils and chick peas - count only once a day in the five a day, however much you eat. While pulses contain fibre, they don't give the same mixture of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients as fruit and vegetables.

And your house will be full of farts

something very spooky happened tonight
I was in the queue at Waitrose and a pack of these were on their own on the side - i had never heard of them before this thread yesterday
Anyway have bought them to try

they are delish - have you tried the yoghurt and cumin rice one? (or something like that)

Eh? Dd likes lentils anyway, without the poncy pouch

We have them in curry, soup, and some pasta dishes.

yes so does mine
I had to buy though as it was like an omen

I love Waitrose, but we don't have one nearby They have 'nice' food .

CD, just shake some out into a bowl with raisins and stick it under their noses while they're watching tv! Call them fairie poos or something.
