I have made this a few times over the past 9 years and my family loves it. I first discovered this when I bought tofu 9 years ago and had no clue how to use it. In order to enjoy tofu you have to find just the right recipe because on it's own it's tasteless and squishy. In this recipe the the tofu soaks up the perfect blend of spices and lentils and together it all creates the closest most delicious meat substitute I've ever had. It tastes just like ground turkey or beef. We make large batches of this and have it on salads and in burritos. It's so yummy and very heart friendly!! Hope you enjoy my version of this recipe.
