"Really, really delicious recipe, and don't get thrown off by the long lists, this is probably one of the easiest recipies I have. My family love these with a little bit of fetta or cottage cheese. I also prefer to eat these in a lavash wrap rather than tortillas."

I also made this with red onions and balamic vinegar! I used the scraps from the vegetables to cook with the lentils, along with some soy sauce and a splash of balsamic. The lentils tasted great, and how can you ever go wrong with roasted veggies?! Very tasty, very filling, will mos def make this again.

I made this using red onion and balsamic vinegar. My family eyed it sceptically but after taking the plunge my husband and my 9 year old said it was tasty.

The taste of this is fantastic! Our only regret was that there was not more. Will make a double batch next time. Be careful with the green onions- they cook really fast. Unfortunately, ours burned to a crisp. The roasted garlic really makes this recipe, I think. I also added just a splash of balsamic vinegar- because I know how well it tastes with roasted veggies. We also mixed the feta cheese right into the filling. Yumm. Thanks so much for sharing, I'm sure we will make this again and again!
