Surfside Academy Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I have a recipe that calls for canned lentils but I can't find any. I've tried Trader Joe's, and a couple of local grocery stores. Any ideas?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbeyej Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Can you substitute dry ones (cooked)? Lentils cook very quickly, so it's much easier to use them than other dry beans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfside Academy Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 I was thinking of that option. I would assume I would just cook them according to the directions on the package. I'm going to process them anyway and make mediterranean burgers. Hopefully they'll be worth all the trouble. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I can get canned lentils at our local food co-op (PCC). I bet you could get them at Whole Foods too. But yes, I'd just do the dry ones! (much cheaper). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nestof3 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Yes, just buy the dry ones, but be sure to rinse them first before cooking them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
