Recipe Instructions:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup white onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup grated carrots
2 cups mushrooms
1 cup zucchini
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 1/2 cups lentils
28 ounces can of crushed tomatoes
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley
salt and pepper teaspoons to taste
1 pound spaghetti squash
Mix the lentils with 3 cups of water and bring to a boil.
Once it is boiling, bring to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 15 minutes
Once the lentils are done cooking, add the white onion, walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, and lentils to food processor. Pulse 3-4 times for 3-5 seconds each. We want the mixture to be chopped up, but not ground.
Next, heat the olive oil in the pan and sauté carrots, mushrooms, and zucchini for about 5 minutes.
Then, add the onion, walnut, and lentil mixture and sauté this for another 5-10 minutes.
Lastly, stir in tomatoes, basil, oregano, and parsley, cover, and let simmer for 10 minutes.
