Directions don't say it; add lentils in step 3.
I love this! So easy to make, and a great meal to bring to work for lunch (not messy and very flavorful). I double the recipe because we eat it as a main meal rather than a side. I generally use walnuts because I don't have almonds/pine nuts (yum!). - 3/5/17
