Steps:
- Cook the green lentils (rinsed and drained) according to package instructions. Halfway through, add the red lentils, stir to combine, and let both lentils finish cooking together in the same pot.
- (Do this step while the lentils are cooking.) In a large pan, saute the diced onion and bell peppers in vegetable broth over medium heat until the onions are soft and translucent.
- Add the minced garlic, chili powder, smoked paprika, tomato paste, and salt. Stir to combine and let the mixture cook for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant. You might need to add a splash of water if the mixture gets to dry and it's sticking to the pan.
- Add the maple syrup, vegan Worcestershire, balsamic vinegar, ketchup, and water. Stir to combine and let it cook for 2-3 minutes so the flavors begin to meld together.
- Add the cooked lentils to the pan, stir everything together, and reduce the heat to medium-low and let it cook for 15 minutes. Spoon the filling into vegan burger buns and enjoy!

Steps:
- Rinse and drain canned lentils or use fresh cooked lentils. Add to a large pot.
- Use a mesh strainer to drain excess liquid from a can of diced tomato. Add to the large pot with the lentils.
- Peel and dice the onion. Peel then mince or crush the garlic.
- Add onions and garlic to the large pot along with all remaining ingredients.
- Place the pot on your stove over high heat and bring to a boil.
- Cook over high heat, stirring regularly, until the mixture has thickened - about 20 minutes. There shouldn't be any pooling liquid in the bottom of the pan (when you scrape across the bottom, the mixture should hold its shape and not pool into the area that was just scraped).
- As liquid evaporates, the mixture will thicken. It's important to keep stirring, especially towards the end of cooking, to keep the mixture from sticking to your pot. You may want to turn the heat down to medium once most liquid is absorbed.
- Serve on fresh buns with additional toppings if desired (see above for serving ideas).

SPICY LENTIL VEGAN SLOPPY JOES
I've been on a sloppy joe kick lately. This lentil sloppy joe is easy to throw together, has a flavorful, firm texture, and is packed full of protein. It's also good to smother a baked potato, it's so good! Today I improvised a little and threw in cooked brown rice and some crushed walnuts. Feel free to experiment! From Naturally Ella.
