I'm new to the world of lentils and the extent of my experience is a simple lentil soup

Never tried any of them though.

This recipe for Lentil Tacos is amazing!

I didn't make the salsa (I already had some xD) or have the ancho chili or the paprika so I just used some store bought taco seasonings and added some black beans. AMAZING.

But I still have a half a bag left, so I'm going to watch this post >)!

I would use green in recipes for black or brown lentils. I would not be as likely to use them in recipes for red lentils because red ones tend to cook to a different (more mushed together, less separate pieces) consistency. Not sure about yellows.

Do you like onions?
This is my favorite lentil soup recipe of all time, so simple and really quite perfect! :)
