I absolutely love lentils (and beans, too). But, I can eat too many in a sitting, too easily, so I really have to watch it and only dole out the amount I'm supposed to have at the time.
But, you are right about them, they are probably one of the best sources for healthy carbs available.
Lentils are a lot easier to cook yourself, too. They require no soaking, like most other legumes. Split peas are another good one. No soaking there, either.
Both lentils and peans can go from dry to soup in an hour and a half. Possibly the easiest soups to make, too.
