Re: Ready to try beans...red or brown lentils?

[Guest guest]

Haha Raj - actually my boyfriend said, " Wow, you'll be one of the happiest

people the dr has ever said 'sorry, you have hemmorhoids' to "

It's true, I'll let you guys know after the appt this morning...

Thanks for the tips everyone...I'll try the red lentils first. I used to make a

dhal that did not have whole spices so I will dig up that recipe and maybe try

that first. Then Raj's (nice website by the way - it's beautiful!).

And Marilyn...I'd love to check out your chili recipe!!

Thanks,

Caroline
