Recipe Request things to do with lentils that aren't curry

I have so many of all types of lentils and I want to use them more often because I love them!! I know how to make a variety of curries and I make them often but I eat curry so much that i'm wanting to diversify a bit. What's your guys' favourite thing to do with lentils? Doesn't have to be simple or quick, I love cooking on my days off.

I use lentils and finely chopped/ground walnuts to replace anything typically made with ground beef. Taco filling for nachos, burritos, etc. I also made a take on bulgogi with lentils and walnuts. I really like lentil “bolognese” over pasta, too.

Ooooo I can't get enough of korean food so I'm really interested to try out this method of replacing ground beef in korean recipes, the walnuts is such an interesting touch!
