This was just okay. The lentils were a bit too mushy for my taste and the flavor was a bit bland.

This was a great way to use up some leftover lentils. I added a few other vegetables and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

I followed the recipe exactly and my dish turned out perfectly. The lentils were tender and the zucchini was still slightly crunchy. So good!

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my lentils turned out mushy. The flavor was still good, but the texture was a bit off.
