The third time's a charm:
Red Lentil Flatbread. This recipe involves soaking first. The previous recipe was stiff and coarse, but delicious in their own way. That recipe is fast and convenient. I would recommend it if you're going to use th breads right away.
This recipe takes some planning and prep, but the breads are more like naan or tortillas - soft and flexible. I think they will keep better and I'll report back. I didn't have any spinach and just skipped it. Also, not a fan of cumin so I used Jamaican style Curry Powder.
