Are those usually more expensive? May be why I never try them.
Lately I eat a lot of lentils. They are so easy to cook and very good source of protein. I know because they cook so fast I end up burning them sometimes and the smell is just like when meat is burned. And They are still very cheap. Go great with Basmati rice and mango chutney.
More expensive, yes. They’re a treat at our house. But hubby and I both agree that they taste like meat USED to taste when were kids.

Lentils, that’s a good idea. I have 15 bean soup mix and that has some lentils in it but I haven’t thought to just get bags of lentils for fast cooking. Thanks for reminding me of a good thing.
Bean prices are way up compared to a few years ago. Lentils are solid!!! And one of the less expensive beans. I ate some last week.
lentils are Biblical -— are the “mess of pottage”
