Notes
DO NOT cook lentils with bay leaves. They are toxic to dogs.
You may sprout lentils, but sprouted lentils need to be broken up in a food processor or blender. Sprouting lessens the protein content but increases other nutrients. Begin with the dry lentil measure; it’s okay if the cooked volume is different than the above cooked measurement. The calories and nutrients will be the same.
Yield close to 11 cups with 1 cup of veggies added. If blended or mashed, yield closer to 8 or 8-1/2 cups. Total calories 2940.
