  Fantastic, my family love this. If I've had enough left over lentils (usually when I cook this for the children) I add stock and whizz it into a soup - yummy!!

  This is a good, filling mid-week meal and very simple to make. Certainly a winner with my 2 year old son!

  To make this a more substantial meal, I added some pasta into the lentils.

  I've made this several times and it's a winner, especially served with garlic bread.

  I love this recipe, however I use 1 can of lentils to feed 2 people instead of 4.

  Really tasty and feels quite sophisticated yet simple to make. You can make it fairly low fat too, by using low-fat sausages (surprisingly!), half-fat creme fraiche, back bacon rashers and spray oil.

  Very nice dinner and will make regularly. I added a clove of garlic, small glug of white wine and used a mixture of puy, red and green lentils. The texture was great and made a lovely tasty and filling dinner.

  This is a fantastic dinner - we didn't have a can of lentils so we cooked some lentils in stock which gave a great flavour.

  The lentils were absolutely lovely, but the portion was somewhat stingy for four people - I'd say it's a generous helping for two.

  This is a great recipe - much more interesting than normal bangers and mash. Everyone loved it - even my boyfriend who I didn't think would like the lentils! Cheers!

  The boyfriend made me this for me last night and it was fantastic! He used chorizo instead of bacon (i'm not the world's biggest fan) and it was absolutely scrumdiddlyumptious! Awesome recipe and obviously not too difficult if he could manage it :P

  I made this recipe for my children and they loved it they had never had green lentils before and would definitely make it again. I used sliced chorizo as I didn't have any bacon and this gave it a lovely smokey flavour

  My husband, myself, 9 and 7 year old, all loved this. Very warming on a rainy day. I upped the vegetables, put in an extra tin of green lentils, added some new potatoes, and adapted the recipe for my slow cooker. (7 hours on low, increase stock to nearly cover, and put tinned lentils in for last 4 hours). Piping hot and delicious! Plenty of leftovers for the next night too, which was the idea.
