How many cups of cooked lentils does one pound of dry lentils make?

One pound of dry lentils typically yields about 2.5 to 3 cups of cooked lentils. When cooked, lentils roughly triple in volume, so from one pound (which is approximately 2 cups dry), you can expect to get around 6 cups of cooked lentils. The exact amount can vary slightly depending on the type of lentils and the cooking method used.
