Sloppy Lentils
1 T olive oil
1 large onion, 1/4 inch diced
1 red pepper, diced
2 large carrots, diced
1 1/2 T chili powder
1/4 - 1/2 tsp chipotle powder
2 cups dried brown or green lentils (don't use red; they'll get too mushy)
28 oz can crushed tomatoes
1 cup water
2 T Braggs liquid aminos or low sodium soy sauce
1 T dijon mustard
1 T brown sugar
1 tsp kosher salt
Heat oil in deep skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and pepper until beginning to soften, around 5-7 minutes. Add chili and chipotle powders and stir until onions and peppers are coated and the spices have bloomed.
Transfer to a 3 1/2 - 4 quart slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients and cook on low 8 - 10 hours.
If you have time, these lentils benefit from being cooled and refrigerated overnight so that the flavors can develop. Reheat and serve on whole grain buns.
