Lentil Bolognese! Surprisingly rich and meaty, super comfort
1,506,297

Lentil Bolognese! Surprisingly rich and meaty, super comforting, and made with mostly pantry ingredients! 🍝Comment PASTA for the full recipe! I came up with this recipe exactly 5 years ago when we started cooking out of our pantries, and it still amazes me how delicious simple ingredients like lentils, onions, garlic, and tomatoes can be when cooked down. With over 1,200+ 5-star reviews, I think it’s safe to say y’all agree 🥳 ⭐️ INGREDIENTS ▫️1 ½ tablespoons olive oil ▫️1 large yellow onion, diced ▫️4 garlic cloves, minced ▫️1 tsp EACH dried oregano & thyme ▫️1 ½ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt ▫️Freshly ground black pepper ▫️5 oz tube of tomato paste  ▫️1/2 cup dry red wine  ▫️3 cups vegetable broth ▫️1 cup red lentils, soaked for 30 minutes ▫️¼ cup walnuts, crushed finely ▫️14.5 oz canned crushed tomatoes (or whole peeled tomatoes) ▫️12-16 oz long, wide pasta (tagliatelle, pappardelle, or fettuccine) OR rigatoni ▫️1 tablespoon high-quality aged balsamic vinegar  ▫️Fresh basil or flat-leaf parsley, chopped (optional) RECIPE TIPS ▫️ Since this recipe uses a lot of tomato paste, seek out tubed tomato paste instead of canned. Tube varieties are preserved with salt (cans usually use citric acid) so the flavor is purer and more seasoned. And there’s no tinny aftertaste. ▫️ The red wine adds a richer body and flavor, but if you don’t vibe with alcohol, just skip it. ▫️The blog post has many more tips, including the printable recipe with metric measurements :) #vegancooking #lentils #veganpasta #vegandinner #vegandinnerideas #whatsfordinner #plantprotein #plantpowered

Lentils are staple of the plant based diet around the world. They are considered healthy nutritious filled with protein and very satisfying. What’s new information is that when you sprout a lentil you increase the vitamin C by 300% and so many other magical things happen. It was a privilege to share this information with @sarahannmacklin on the live well be well podcast. #sprouting #sulforaphane #lentils #nutrition

Tinned Lentil Chilli Do you remember a while ago I said I was going to figure out how to make a really good chilli using tinned green lentils? Well, I did it and it was SO good! It's ridiculously easy to make and because it uses all tinned and store cupboard ingredients, it's as cheap as chips! The secret ingredient is beef gravy granules. They make it thick and hearty and you probably already know this, but most beef gravy brands are vegetarian! If you like my recipes and you're looking for more dinner ideas, my new cookbook Easy 10 has 100 recipes...and a whole chapter on lentils! It's currently 20% off and the link to pre-order is in my profile I've written up the recipe for this below and I would love to know if you're going to give it a try, A x Feeds 4-6 Oil for frying 1 red onion finely chopped 2 cloves garlic finely chopped 1 tbsp sun dried tomato paste 1 tsp chilli powder 1 tsp ground cumin 2 tsp smoked paprika 1 tbsp honey 2 x 400g green lentils drained 400g tin of baby tomatoes 400g tin of kidney beans drained 25g Beef gravy granules (veggie) mixed with 400ml boiling water Salt and ground black pepper Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, non-stick pan. Add the onion and fry on a medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring regularly. Add the chopped garlic and fry for 1 minute. Stir in the sun dried tomato paste, spices and honey. Give it a stir and fry for a minute or two. Add the drained lentils, baby tomatoes and beef gravy. Use the back of a wooden spoon to pop the tomatoes. Stir in the kidney beans and season with salt and pepper Simmer on a medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring regularly. Serve with rice and tortilla chips #vegetarian #cooking #recipes #meatfree #lentils #lentilrecipe #homemade #comfortfood #familyrecipes #familydinner #delicious #sotasty #quickdinner #Easy10 #budgetcooking #moneysaving

Tomato Lentil Bowl 🌿 I’m part of a cookbook club and this months cook book was “Feel Good Food” by @loveandlemons Details ⤵️ Lemon ricotta: ricotta + lemon zest + s&p Herby lentils: green lentils + parsley + garlic + lemon juice + evoo Hazelnut bread crumbs: hazelnuts + dried sourdough + nutritional yeast + spices Fresh veg: arugula + cherry tomatoes Garnish: basil + a squeeze of lemon juice I was immediately drawn to this recipe because of the lemon ricotta and hazelnut breadcrumbs. Two unique components that sounded incredible together!! The mix of textures, along with the contrast between fresh and warm elements, completely sold me. It’s such a perfect bowl equation. I added roasted zucchini (my favorite) to bring in another warm, savory layer. This came together quickly, and I’ve loved having it ready for easy dinners this week. I’ll definitely be finding more ways to incorporate lemon ricotta into future dishes, it’s too good not to 🍋 I rank the cookbooks on the following: Inspiration – how much the recipes spark ideas and get me excited to cook Approachability – how doable the recipes feel for all levels Taste – how delicious and satisfying the dishes are Shelf Staple – how likely i am to actually reach for the book Inspiration: 4.5/5 Approachability: 4.5/5 Taste: 4/5 Shelf Staple: 2.5/5 (I’m picky about this) Overall: 3.9/5! #mealideas #vegetarian #lentils #wholefood #healthyrecipes
