    Lentil-Walnut Spread, Stuff this into a whole wheat pita and top with paper thin slices of red onion and crisp lettuce, and you have a great meal! Or spread on French bread for an appetizer! Adapted from Vegetarian Times magazine , This was very good We like some other spreads better, but this was a nice change Thanks so much for sharing! :O), Absolutely delicious I toast my walnuts before I grind them up, then instead of removing paste to a bowl, I add the remaining ingredients to my food processor and pulse a few times to blend Sometimes I get distracted and the pulsing turns into a puree, but it’s all good The color is beautiful, and this is very easy to throw together I’ve been making wraps with this on spinach tortillas, adding mesclun, grated carrots and some of Sharon’s recipe for sprouted lentil and bulgar salad A great vegetarian lunch, thanks, Sharon
