Ingredients
Directions
Lentils, 1 cup, driedWater, tap, 2 cupsYellow Bell Pepper, large, cored and dicedOnion, raw, 1 medium, dicedBaby peeled carrots, raw, 1.5 cup, cut in thirdsTomatoes, petite diced, small canGarlic, peeled, 1 large clove Sea salt, 3/4 tspPepper, black, coarse (restaurant grind) 2 tsp(***Option: 1/2 teaspoon SMOKED paprika!)Seitan Chorizo, 4 oz (recipe in my recipe box)Farfalle, DeCecco, 4 cups, cooked
In a saucepan, place 2 cups water, one cup lentils, bell pepper, onion, baby carrots, diced tomatoes, garlic clove (WHOLE), sea salt and black pepper. Bring to a boil. When this comes to a boil, reduce heat to the lowest setting and cover, simmering gently for up to two hours or until the lentils are firm to the bite. Cooked, not mushy-anybody can overcook them. When this is done, cut the seitan in half, lengthwise, then into half-inch slices. Add to the lentil mix and stir in.
Just before serving, cook two dry cups of farfalle (bow-tie) pasta according to manufacturer's directions. Do NOT SALT or OIL the water. Place a cup of cooked pasta in each of four bowls, ladle the lentils over the pasta, and serve. A little low-fat parmigiana sprinkles nicely over this, but invalidates the vegan standing of the recipe.
