Best Vegan Lentil Recipes

There is no shortage of vegan lentil recipes in this round up, and if you're looking for ideas based on the lentils you have on hand already, the color order goes: green/brown, red/yellow, then black/white.

Brown & Green Lentil Recipes

I feel like brown and green lentils are so easy to find for most people but not always the most inspiring, but HOLY MOLY the recipes featured here are drool-worthy!

Red Lentil Recipes

One of the reasons I love red lentils is that they are split and take a fraction of the cooking time other lentils do! This makes them great to add to stews, oatmeal, or blend up!

Black (beluga) and White Lentil Recipes

I have a soft spot for black/beluga lentils and their typically tiny and firm shape that they hold even after being thorough cooked. Though I had never seen white lentils before I knew I had to feature them!
