Walnut and Lentil Pate
"I found this recipe on the safe.org.nz site and found it too dry - the addition of low fat cream cheese made it just what I wanted - I take it to work to spread on toasted bagels for lunch.
I use two 400g tins of lentils, rinsed and drained.
I guess it could be made vegan by swapping the cheese for tofu."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Male, mid 40s, who loves to eat and to cook. Obsessive reader of recipe books and food magazines.
Going through a phase with muffins at the moment - they are only recently becoming popular here in the UK, thank you Otis Spunkmeyer. I'm alternating between healthy and naughty recipes, like to take them to work to share round - better than taking in boxes of doughnuts from Mr Krispy K (which have only lately been sold over here).
