In a medium pot, brown the sausage. Once cooked, remove from pot and set aside

Drizzle a little olive oil in the same pot, and add your onions and garlic. Sautee for 3-5 minutes

Add your other veggies to the pot and Sautee another 5 min. Then add your tomato paste and mix to combine

Add all your seasonings and mix. Add your browned sausage back to the pot.

Add all your stewed tomatoes to the pot. Also, add your lentils at this point. Mix everything together (if it's too thick, you can add a little water OR some crushed tomato or even tomato sauce to loosen things up)

Place the lid on the pot, turn heat to medium-low and let cook and get delish for 30-35min. (Stirring occasionally)

Everything is done qhen the lentils are cooked through. (Again, around 35 minutes or so)
