Round-up of Spotlight : Beans & Lentil

Finally, the round-up of Spotlight : Beans & lentil is out...Sorry for being so late, I was over-occupied with lots of things. I'm feeling really happy that finally I made it, Yaay!!
Like every event, this time also we are showered with 45 unique and over-delicious recipes. So many of them I have never heard of. Just because of this event, I have learnt so many recipes from my fellow blogger buddies. Thank You All for making this event successful and fruitful for all of us. We have so many dishes to learn and re-create in our own kitchen, right? So no more chit-chat, directing you all towards this colorful palatte of lentil dishes to explore .......................
