When I ordered this meal I didn’t pay that much attention and I thought it was couscous! So when I opened the bag and a can of lentils came out I was like ummm :-/
So with it being my first time trying lentils, I’m not exactly sure how they’re supposed to be. Mine were more “creamy” than the ones in the picture. I’m also not entirely sure if I like them and I didn’t hate them right off the bat, so that’s good at least. To me, they kind of tasted like refried beans but just a bit off. I used the whole packet of spice so I did like the flavoring but I think my issue might just be with the texture more than taste.
Again, have yet to find a jam recipe that I didn’t like. Altho this one came off kind of like the coating on a red candy apple. But the flavoring was good. Excuse me accidentally adding the sauce before I cut up the pork chop. Figured I would just take the pic before it got messy.
Overall, I’m not sure if I would get this specific meal again. I would be open though to another recipe that has lentils to give them a try again.

Ooooh – I’ve not noticed lentils before! Were they somewhat precooked/soaked? My experience with lentils is that they take a bit longer to cook than the other grain-y sides that HF normally includes.
