Its summertime and I wanted to make a lentil dinner. Usually I make Lentil Stew but its too hot for that. So I wanted to do something else. I found this recipe in my Forks Over Knives cookbook called Spaghetti with Lentil Ragu. This "meat" sauce is based on that recipe. The recipe calls for diced tomatoes but I chose a can of crushed tomatoes to make a sauce. I also put the lentils through a blender to make the lentils more ground meat like . Topping it with cheddar cheese really finished it off perfectly. I hope you'll like it as much as my family did.

Love this recipe because it is so easy to make and nicely low calorie. 483 calories per serving.

My children love meat sauce. If you use canned chopped tomatoes, you can make meat sauce easily. It can be used on pasta, in gratin and many other things. It can be frozen too.The key is to add a piece of curry roux. Children will love this too. Recipe by notyet

Quick and easy recipe! You can use any kind of pasta, it doesn't have to be spaghetti ;)

Before I would add ketchup and Worcestershire sauce as the finishing touch, but I wanted to make it more simply to enjoy the flavor of the ingredients.Allow to cool for a moment and the flavor will settle down and become really delicious. For serving 8. Recipe by Babette29

Spaghetti squash has fooled many guests into thinking they were being served noodles, especially when it is served cold with peanut sauce or warm with the classic marinara sauce by Lidia Bastianich.#vegan #vegetarian #pasta #gluten #free #Italian #marinara #sauce #spaghetti #squash #meal #lunch #easy
