40/365 they can't all be keepers

Moroccan Chicken and Lentils
it looks scrumptious
has a spicy bite
smells SO good when it is cooking
and certainly fits under Operation Healthy Family
so I thought we had a winner winner yummy dinner

alas, it was all too good to be true
& and in the words of the great Kaeden
"Mom, this is SO NOT a keeper"

Scott and Kaeden tried really hard to eat the lentils
but they just couldn't do it
and ended up having whole wheat buns instead with the chicken.

I really didn't think it was all that bad
but I VERY clearly got the message
that I could make the chicken part again
but under NO circumstances are lentils
going to be in our diet anytime soon!

Just my luck that the recipe made over 12 cups of lentils
so I took a bit for lunch
and offered some to the dog
but she also looked at me like I
was insulting her by offering it to her
so the rest ended up in the garbage.

I laughed so hard when I read your blog. One failure out of all that you have tried is a great percentage!
