    This was super simple to make and it was well received in our family. I didn't serve this as a main dish, but rather served it on the side of Spinach Chicken and Roasted Asparagus. I think that the rice to lentil combination was off. I think I would have liked it more if there were more rice and less lentils. Thanks for the recipe Hommus.
