Lentil Bolognese with Fresh Herbs
Hearty brown lentils and aromatic mirepoix simmered in a rich tomato sauce, served over protein-packed chickpea pasta with a velvety finish of fresh herbs.
INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup brown lentils (cooked)
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 cup tomato puree
0.75 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
0.25 cup yellow onion
0.25 cup carrots
0.25 cup celery
1 clove garlic
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh basil
1 tsp fresh oregano
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the finely diced onion, carrots, and celery until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for approximately 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the cooked lentils, tomato puree, sea salt, and black pepper to the skillet, stirring to combine and simmering for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the Greek yogurt and nutritional yeast until the sauce becomes thick and creamy.
Drain the pasta and toss it directly into the lentil sauce, garnishing with freshly chopped basil and oregano before serving.
