I can’t really decide if this is more like a fudge or brownie. So I am just naming it both! Seriously, you will not believe that lentils are in here. The versatility of lentils makes me want to throw them in almost any type of dish. These powerhouse little legumes are high in protein, a great source of fibre and also a source of iron. With only 4 ingredients and no baking required, these are almost too easy to make.
