Anyone have the recipe for Barbecue Lentils from the Biggest

richardmbunn

I'm looking for the recipe for the barbecue lentils that were featured in the very first Biggest Loser book (the one with the picture of Bob on the front). They were amazing. I stupidly threw my book away a couple of years ago thinking I'd never use it again. And guess what...

BBQ Lentils

BBQ Lentils SERVES 6
From the Harrisburg Patriot Food section for Dec 14. No promises because I am putting it here for me also From the Biggest Loser Cookbook by Rodale Added: July 15th. I tried this. The brown lentils seem to take forever as the reviewers said. I would suggest trying a faster lentil. Red might be much easier in this recipe but watch it carefully when you do. French took ages. No all Lentils are not created equal [grin]
