[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like to put lentils in my salads. Also a lentil potato soup is good.[/quote] Lentils are great meat substitute (or in addition to) nearly everything you make that contains ground beef, chicken, pork, sausage, etc. They're so mild and versatile you basically can't go wrong - soups, stews, tacos, Shepard's pie, etc. Really, all legumes are a great way to healthfully stretch a meal without changing much of the preparation.Texture does come into play a lot and I would recommend that you start sampling a bunch of different options to see what you enjoy most. White, pinto and kidney beans are creamy and go well with savory preparations, while black beans are more snappy and dense so you need equally hearty ingredients to help balance. At then end of the day, no bean is going to dramatically alter the flavor of your dish. Start treating them as you would other proteins - on their own or mixed in - and see what works for you.
