Thinking of buying this tomorrow. Does anyone like or dislike, and if you like it do you eat it alone? Thanks!!

I have to say, this isn't one of my favorites. Does anybody add anything to it, so that it's more appealing?

I liked it a lot more than I thought I would! I always add onions and hot sauce where I can. Hope this isn't TMI, but possibly be prepared for gas.... Remember, everyone has different tastes, I've read where things were gross that I liked, and things I don't like others said were great! I'm on my 3rd week, and wanted to try everything that I think I might like at least once. Of course I have things that I just don't even want to try..... If anything is too gross, you just can eat more VEGGIES!!!

LOVE IT! Do you like a really thick lentil soup? That is what it reminds me of - it does NOT have a broth like a soup, just lots of hearty lentils with some beef.
I usually heat it and then dump it on top of some lettuce, onion, and mushroom all cut up on a plate (think salad)...used to use spinach until the recent spinach e-coli thing.
Everyone has different tastes, but if you like Lentils, you should like this.

Hey good idea - heat up a cup of low sodium beef broth (with a bit of extra water to cut the sodium even more) and throw in some chopped up tiny veggies. Once the veggies are cooked, dump in the heated lentils meal and you'll have a hearty lentil soup!
I do the same with the potstickers. I always make this HUGE bowl of soup with it. So good. Might just get the lentils this week and give this a try.
Haven't bought it in a while though cause it's so high in fibre that it makes me a tad hmmm loud and aromatic??!! But perhaps another try is in order.

I LOVE the Lentils and Beef - Here's what I do with it - same for the Thai Lemongrass - serve it over a large bed of red leaf lettuce, add some ground fresh chili sauce (it's hot), mix it all up and it's YUMMY!!
