Spicy Lentil Dip Recipe

Last updated on November 17th, 2020 at 11:35 am

This spicy lentil dip can add more flavor to any dinner and it makes it easy to use up leftover lentils.

Okay, honestly, I made this recipe such a long time ago, it’s a senior recipe. Be nice to it.

It was one of those things that happened very spontaneously when I was dealing with some leftover lentils. Yes, I’ve got 99 problems and lentils are among them, sue me.

I didn’t even intend to take a picture or share this dip. But it was so good that I decided to write down the recipe and ever since, I’ve been making this same dip recipe with beans, because no leftover lentils.

So if you don’t have lentils, make this using canned beans, I like both versions.

What you need to definitely do if you’re using the lentils for this recipe is to add salt (if you haven’t added any while cooking them).
