Tomato and red lentil marinara
Anyone following a #vegan diet has a marinara in their repertoire, it’s a requirement! Here’s mine. The lentils are packed with protein so you won’t go hungry. Serve with pasta or as the filling in a lasagne.

3 servings

Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Chop up the garlic, onion and carrot. I had some celery that needing using up but that’s not a requirement.
* Step 2
Once the veg has started to soften add the rinsed lentils to the pan.
* Step 3
Soon after add the cans of chopped tomatoes and the stock to the pan.
* Step 4
Should be smelling pretty choice by now.
* Step 5
Chop the olives and mix them in.
* Step 6
About 5 minutes before serving stir in the oregano and basil. Fresh is best if you have it.
* Step 7
Keep cooking until the lentils are cooked through. Should be about 30 minutes in total.
