Tips:

For a more realistic chopped liver texture, use a food processor to pulse the lentils until they are finely chopped, but not pureed.
If you don't have any hard-boiled eggs on hand, you can substitute 1/4 cup of mayonnaise.
To make the mock chopped liver even more flavorful, add a teaspoon of minced garlic or onion.
