Time 3h40m

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 medium onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 cup brown lentils
1 (15 ounces) can diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups vegetable broth
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
2 1/2 cups shredded cabbage
1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon celery salt (or 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon celery seeds)
Fresh hamburger buns to assemble

Steps:

  • Add all of the lentil sloppy joe ingredients (no coleslaw ingredients yet) into the slow cooker. Mix everything together until well combined.
  • Cover and cook for 3 1/2 hours on high in your slow cooker (or Instant Pot set to Slow Cook.)
  • Check the lentil sloppy joes every hour or so, adding more water if necessary.
  • Once the lentil sloppy joes have started cooking, you can make the coleslaw by simply combining all the ingredients in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate. You can also make this just before the lentil sloppy joes are done but leaving it to set for a while makes the flavors come together wonderfully.
  • Once the lentil sloppy joes are finished cooking, serve them on fresh hamburger buns, topped with coleslaw.

SLOPPY JOE LENTILS (SLOW COOKER OR CROCK POT)



Sloppy Joe Lentils (Slow Cooker or Crock Pot) image

This is a semi-homade version inspired by the other sloppy joe lentil recipes here (thanks, guys!). This is for the 5-6 qt. slow cooker too. Hubby tried it and liked even though he's a carnivore. I made this one afternoon and froze half of the batch for another time. With a 6 qt. slow cooker, you can probably double the recipe easily (I ended up adding extra lentils to the recipe because I used too much water at first...ended up with 1.5lb. lentils and I still had plenty of room in my crock pot).

Tangy, hearty, and easy! Chickpeas and red lentils cook up thick and rich in a tomato-BBQ base.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 8h10m

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 15-ounce cans chickpeas, drained
1/2 cup uncooked split red lentils (rinsed)
1 small onion (diced (about 1 cup))
3 medium cloves garlic (diced (about 1 tablespoon))
1 15-ounce can tomato sauce
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons vegan Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon red crushed pepper flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
4 hamburger buns*
2 teaspoons olive oil
Sliced red onion
Dill pickles or sweet pickles
3-quart or larger slow cooker

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to the slow cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours or on high 5-6 hours, until the lentils are cooked through and the mixture thickens. Open the slow cooker and, using a potato masher, mash about 1/3 of the filling. Give it a good stir, replace the lid, and let it cook for another 30 minutes or so until thickened.
  • Meanwhile, toast the buns. Brush insides with olive oil and place cut-side-up under the broiler in your oven. Broil 30 - 60 seconds until golden.
  • Place buns on plate and spoon filling over the top. Add toppings if desired. Serve.
  • Leftover filling keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
