Nutty Lentil Loaf

    The only reason I gave this a 4--and I would have given it a 4 1/2 if possible--is that the loaf fell apart a little bit for me. I think it was a little bit dry but since I had never made it before, I felt it was okay. So in the future, I might just add some extra moisture regardless. The flavor is very savory and as others have said the nuts and the raisins create flavor and texture interest and variety. Much can be done with the left overs and I am loving them in my work lunches.
