INGREDIENTS
200g White Button Mushrooms, sliced
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1/3 cup dry Red Lentils
2.5 oz Tempeh, cubed
1 cup canned Diced Tomatoes
1 small Onion, diced
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tbsp mixed Fresh Basil & Oregano
Red Pepper Flakes, Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant. 
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Sauté until they begin to release their moisture and start to brown. 
- Stir in the red lentils and canned diced tomatoes (with their juices). Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the sauce thickens too much, add a splash of water. 
- While the ragu simmers, gently pan-sear the tempeh cubes in a separate non-stick pan over medium heat until they turn golden on all sides. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. 
- Add the seared tempeh to the simmering ragu. Stir in fresh basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Adjust seasoning as needed. 
- Prepare the zucchini noodles by either spiralizing a medium zucchini or using pre-made zoodles. If desired, briefly toss them in the pan for 1-2 minutes just to warm them without losing crunch. 
- To serve, place a generous portion of zucchini noodles in a bowl and ladle the hearty mushroom ragu with lentils and tempeh over the top. Enjoy hot.
