I bet you didn't know that beans can be a healthful and nutritious addition to certain baked goods. Up in the state of Washington where we are from, apparently the Washington State University serves a really good chocolate lentil cake to its staff and students. The school is located in Pullman, Washington, which is a part of a region called the Palouse. One third of our nation's lentils are grown in this area and since 1989 Pullman has hosted the National Lentil Festival.

1/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup washed lentils
1 cup oil

4 Tbl cocoa
1/2 tsp salt
