I’ve found myself with way more red lentils than expected and, as much as I like it, a man can only have Dal so many times. Any other suggestions for what I can do with Lentils?

    Ah, my apologies. Saw a question about lentils, but didn’t notice the community - it’s not so obvious in my browser, didn’t mean anything by it.

    Fortunately, lentil soup is easy to make vegetarian (suggested recipe is on that link) and is equally delicious.

      Thanks for your kind reply! Did not seek to imply you meant anything rude. I just started the community and I purposely welcome all! :) no matter what stage or reasoning they have towards plantbased.

      Your recipe seems interesting. Based on your recipe and experience what would you recommend in place of bone stock? I’ve never been successful with just vegetables

      Cheers

        I have a big tub of swiss vegetable buillon handy for soup making. You can prepare it aa hot drink as well as a stock - it’s perfect for soup making, as it has quite a bit of flavour rather than being ‘salty’. Adds a bit of depth that can be missing from just veg.

        My one’s the ‘marigold’ brand, since that’s what you can get near me - don’t know how others compare.

          Thanks! I will look into that. I’ve only ever used the Viet one or tried to make it myself poorly.

          This sounds great for a yummy protein meal :) thank you
