I tested this recipe because I though I would be making it for holiday dinner. I read the reviews. Many praised this recipe so I ignored the fewer that said it was bland. I should not have done that. The recipe called for 1 1/8 c of lentils, but the directions said 2 c. I went closer to 2 and think the spices/flavor amounts were supposed to be with the 1 1/8 c. It was pretty bland even though I added onions. If I try this again I will double the basil and garlic powder, add more onions, and put in some bell pepper. However I don't know if I will be making this again, it was too time consuming. Sorry!

DELICIOUS! Everybody loved them. The only problem is the grease. Cut down on the butter--BIG time! I washed my hands, and they're still shining. It took about 15 to 20 minutes to bake. I'm giving this only 4 stars because the recipe is so common and the butter. Sorry... Still loved it!

These were STUPENDOUS!! They had a nice crunchy outside yet a soft, moist inside. I usually chop up a recipe but I barely altered this one. Instead of 1-1/2 cups of regular flour, I only used 1 cup and 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour. I would also reccomend 2 tsp. vanilla and 1/2 cup of brown sugar instead of 3/4 cup of white sugar. Definitely a keeper!
