I overcooked lentils today so I made a lentil hummus. Lentils, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, red pepper flakes and shredded Parmesan cheese. It was delicious!

So happy that your recipe is here. I ended up freezing the mushy lentils, not knowing what to do with them but hating to throw it out. I’m fixing this for dinner using some walnut flour and chickpea flour (don’t have any regular flour and we’re in an ice storm!) I may also try to craft some veggie burgers with the rest of the lentils, maybe mixing with some cooked brown rice to help them hold together

I’m SO incredibly excited about all the failures listed here BECAUSE I don’t like lentils cooked just until firm as, it seems, the entire world prefers. So I’m going to get right at that rice cooker and “have me a time!” Thank you SO much for the advise!

I tried this after ruining a pan of lentils. It was yummy! I used garlic and paprika as it’s all I had and served with some left over salsa and sour cream. Really nice!
