I followed the recipe exactly, but my lentil taco cups turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These lentil taco cups were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more spices.

I'm not a big fan of lentils, but these taco cups were surprisingly good. The lentils were cooked perfectly and the vegetables added a nice flavor. The avocado-lime crema was also a nice touch.
