I still love garbanzo beans the best

Around me, there is no "Asian/Indian or anyother Markets".
We have a "store"' that has some things, but when we ask about things like "garbanzo beans" they looked at me funny.

If you don't mind ordering over the Internet, here is a good link to try for all sorts of beans and grains:

Bob's Red Mill - V2 - Whole Grain and Gluten Free Products and Recipes

try your local health food store for lentils

The Hannaford's by the Back Cove in Portland has red lentils in the bulk section.

Garbonzo beans are also known as chick peas. Ask for those and you might get a different response.

I found red lentils at one traditional grocery store and they were a tiny bag and quite expensive. Trader Joe's is so reasonable in cost I was hoping to find some there. They have such a great nut/seed section so I was expecting better bean selection.
I'm telling you even if you aren't a vegetarian, beans and legumes are the way to go in this tough economy! Delicious, nutritious and cheap.
I have a great black bean/black eyed pea salsa salad recipe if anyone wants it DM me. You can use it as a salsa or I just eat it out of the bowl like salad! I welcome recipes too.

Moughie and Quiet Walker, some recipes for you.
