Thus the idea of a lentil loaf appeals to me, but a lentil meat loaf does not! :) What a great way to cook in the summer.Beth in the Cityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04702179612923382436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-87960695086679383282013-07-25T08:59:31.579-04:002013-07-25T08:59:31.579-04:00you are so clever.

I don't do any outside-the-kitchen cooking (sometimes my husband does grill) so I admire the concept of it, especially in hot summertime. <br /><br />And lentil loaf sounds like the kind of thing *I* would love.

I am a child of the 70s and still shudder remembering being tricked into lentil meatballs and burgers, and tofu-filled milkshakes. It wasn't the ingredients, it was trying to pass them off as something they weren't that made me gag. My mom and I laugh about it now, but it was contentious at the time. :) sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05372272007182679464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-25624920150804591062013-07-23T00:09:44.070-04:002013-07-23T00:09:44.070-04:00I'm also wondering about a recipe for the lent...I'm also wondering about a recipe for the lentil loaf.

I never knew you could use a pan inside the cooker. How convenient! And what a good idea to use the slow cooker outside.<br /><br />I hope your heat breaks soon.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.com
