Size: 1 Lb Bag

From The Rancho Gordo Kitchen: Ideal in soups and salads, or folded into yogurt as a perfect summer dish. We ignored lentils for years, but we will ignore them no longer! They are one of the earliest cultivated crops and have been a source of sustenance for humans for thousands of years. History aside, what we love about them is that they are quick-cooking, they taste delicious, and they only need a few aromatic vegetables and a splash of good olive oil to make a great meal.
