This recipe is very versitile. I've made it twice, once as suggested and once a bit tweaked. The second time, I used a can of mexican-flavored diced tomatoes in place of the taco sauce. I added cilantro, a small, chopped onion and about 4 cloves of minced garlic to the first step of preparation. For the hot pepper sauce, I used the hot Vietnamese sauce that comes with a rooster on the bottle and a green top...very hot stuff! I also served the tacos with fresh tomatoes and green onions. While I wouldn't call this one of my favorite dishes, it is a creative way to cook healthy lentils. I'll add it to the rotation.

I must admit that my husband and I weren't blown away by this recipe. However, it is such an easy lentil dish that I may try it again with a few tweaks. We weren't to big on the zucchini, so next time we may try pumpkin or butternut squash instead.

First off I want to say thanks to Pam for putting the idea of using lentils in a burrito in my head. I would have never thought of that combination and really enjoyed it. Second like other reviewers I tweaked the recipe which is something I usually do to make it to my family's liking. First off I cooked the lentils all by themselves because I have never cooked lentils and was a little apprehensive.I also made two different variations of the burritos one with leftover ground venison, lentils, tomatoes, sauted onions, minced carrots and brown rice and the other with lentils, brown rice, and salsa. I never really measure the seasonings just add what looks good. The carrots I finely chopped using my mini food processor. Something I always add to any ground beef/ground meat dish. I figure it gives my kids extra veggies and also makes the meal go farther which is another great thing about lentils. I made a whole 16oz bag and had at least 2 cups extra for another nights meal along with extra leftover rice. I was looking up burrito recipes in the first place because I found a bunch of wraps for a great price. I used the wraps and lentil/venison lentil filling to make at least 20 make ahead burritos. I'm going to do the same tomorrow with eggs, salsa, ham, cheese and tomatoes. Hope this helps and thanks again Pam for a highly versatile recipe!

Instead of dried onions/garlic, I used fresh. I placed maybe .5 tb of olive oil in a hot pan & sauteed the fresh diced garlic & onion in pan for a couple of minutes, then added the other 4(of the 6) ingredients. Also sauteed the zucchini in a separate pan with a bit of olive oil & added sea salt. Used Sriracha for the hot pepper sauce. I'll definitely make these again maybe using chopped jalapeno peppers--very tasty burritos! Served burritos with a bit of Mexican cheese(queso fresco) instead of mozzarell' & a bit of cilantro.

These burritos are surprisingly delicious! Serve over lettuce, tomato, and cheese!

This is tasty and something I'll likely make again. However, I did follow some of the suggestions from other reviewers about adding cilantro to the lentils,and sauteing the zucchini with a little olive oil, etc. Also, I'm not a big lentils eater normally, but it seemed like the cook time on the lentils was a little on the short side. I ended up adding more water and cooking longer. Would want to experiment with that a bit next time. All and all a great idea, however! Two-thumbs up!

I started an sustainable living experiment last month...to eat a lunch meal every day that is based on dried beans or legumes. Lentil Burritos is a good simple recipe to keep me on track. I eat it in a tortilla with cheese, salsa, and whatever else I have on hand. Good. Simple. Sustainable.

I used the filling from "tasty lentil tacos" from this site. These were good. I spread some guacamole on the bottom layer

This was a good vegetarian burrito, as I'm always looking for some good vegetarian dishes...the only thing I was not crazy about were the chunks of zucchini...I may make it again with the zucchini shredded or leave it out. Overall this was a good burrito and everyone did eat it in my family.

My husband and I both really liked this recipe. I added more hot sauce, more cheese, and I cooked the zucchini a little bit. Overall, a healthy, good, easy to make meal.
