They also cook more quickly and form a puree readily, making them ideal for loaves and burgers.

Red lentils make for a quick and convenient meal, as they cook in 15–20 minutes and don’t require pre-soaking like larger legumes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003cspan style=\"background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre;\"\u003eNon-GMO\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003cspan style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial;\"\u003eKosher\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003cspan style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial;\"\u003eProduct of Washington \u0026amp; Idaho\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:10pt;\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan id=\"docs-internal-guid-863e9c84-7fff-6fdd-0fa5-ce77f94e050d\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eProduct meets or exceeds USDA guidelines.
