When I click on the hyperlink for the lentil taco salad, I only get the recipe for the Mexican spice seasoning

Hey there, Susan! Thanks for making us aware of the link issue. If you remember, could you kindly share which hyperlink you were referring to so we can fix it? In the meantime, the Lentil Taco Salad recipe can be found by searching for "Lentil Taco Salad" 🤗

It’s the hyperlink in the YouTube video for the lentil taco salad description box that mistakenly takes you to spice recipe

PUL Team - June 22, 2021, 5:33 a.m.

Thanks for sharing, Jane - it's much appreciated! The link has been updated now in the video description box 😊 Enjoy the recipe!
