You should be able to find them in the Indian food aisle, or near the rice and beans.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mushrooms:<\/strong> White or baby bella work best.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Diced tomatoes:<\/strong> I always prefer fire roasted diced tomatoes because they have more flavor, but you can use whatever is in your pantry.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pasta sauce:<\/strong> Use your favorite kind! I used an arrabbiata sauce for a little extra heat, but any sauce will work.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pasta:<\/strong> Again, use what you have. If you want to keep this recipe gluten free, opt for a gluten free pasta.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Step-by-step instructions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Step 1: Cook the pasta.<\/strong>\u00a0This part is easy&#8211;just cook pasta over the stovetop as you normally would.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Saut\u00e9 the vegetables.<\/strong>\u00a0Don&#8217;t worry, this is easy too! Start by saut\u00e9ing the onion, garlic, mushrooms, and spices until they&#8217;re soft. The mushrooms help to add a little more texture and nutrition to this dish, so don&#8217;t omit them! If you <em>hate<\/em> mushrooms, use shredded carrots instead.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19621\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-10.jpg\" alt=\"how to make lentil bolognese\" width=\"704\" height=\"703\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-10.jpg 704w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-10-400x399.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-10-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-10-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-10-500x500.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Make the sauce.<\/strong> Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, lentils, and water and stir so that everything is mixed together. For the diced tomatoes, don&#8217;t drain out any of the liquid; instead, pour the entire can into the skillet. Bring the bolognese to a simmer and simmer for approximately 25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the lentils are cooked. If it seems too thick, add an additional 1\/4 cup of water.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to do a taste test before serving! I used arrabbiata sauce (spicy tomato sauce) and the 1\/2 tsp red pepper flakes, which I thought was the perfect amount of flavor. If you use a more traditional sauce and want to add more spice, add more red pepper flakes. Or, omit the spice altogether and add some chopped fresh basil.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQs and Expert Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>Can I substitute red lentils?<\/h3>\n<p>I wouldn&#8217;t, and here&#8217;s why. Though red lentils may seem quite similar to green and brown, they&#8217;re actually going to provide an entirely different texture because they fall apart when cooked, therefore creating a mushier texture. The green or brown lentils will actually have a little bit of a bite to them&#8211;they&#8217;ll be cooked of course, but certainly not mushy.<\/p>\n<h3>How should I store this?<\/h3>\n<p>Be sure to store any leftover pasta in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze bolognese?<\/h3>\n<p>Yep! If you want to make this ahead and store it in the freezer, wait until it comes to room temperature, then transfer it to a plastic freezer-safe bag and freeze it for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>To reheat:<\/strong> invert the plastic bag and dump the bolognese into a large pot or dutch oven. Add 3\/4 cup water, then bring mixture to a simmer. Place a lid on top, and simmer it for 25-30 minutes until it&#8217;s completely thawed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19619\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lentil-Bolognese-Recipe-1-3.jpg\" alt=\"a bowl of pasta with lentils and red sauce\" width=\"700\" height=\"1050\" data-pin-description=\"This easy LENTIL BOLOGNESE recipe is a quick weeknight meal that just so happens to be vegan and gluten free.

The amount of water you need largely depends on the size of the skillet you're using. I recommend a large skillet, as the lentils will cook faster and more easily.\u00a0<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">Lentil substitution: I've found that using red lentils instead of green or brown results in an entirely different texture. The red lentils fall apart when cooked, resulting in a mushier texture. If you can, try to use green or brown lentils.\u00a0<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">You CAN freeze this recipe! Simply make it, then wait for it to come to room temperature before scooping it into a plastic bag and storing it in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat: invert plastic bag and pour contents into a large pot or dutch oven. Add 3\/4 cup water, then simmer mixture with a lid on for 25-30 minutes, or until it's thawed.\u00a0<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"cwp-food-nutrition\">\n\t\t<div id=\"recipe-19614-nutrition\"
