Just realized I can stretch ground beef with a can of lentils
I was out of onions for a spaghetti sauce last week and threw in a drained can of brown lentils instead, and honestly it bulked out the meat without tasting weird. Anyone else got a cheap pantry trick like this that actually saves money?

Read somewhere that adding a can of lentils to ground beef is common in a lot of older cookbooks.

Why would anyone ruin perfectly good ground beef with bland lentils, @the_emery?
