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.
