Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1 garlic clove chopped
  • 1 can tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon Italian dried herb mix
  • 1 tablespoon fresh oregano
  • 1/2 can cooked brown lentils
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • a little red wine optional
  • 300 g Spaghetti 10 oz.
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon pine nuts
  • 1 handful of rocket salad
  • a dash of freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • First, gather all your ingredients and prepare them in the right amounts. That makes it so much easier and more fun and you're less likely to forget anything. 
  • Heat salted water in a big pot for the pasta. 
  • Sauté onions in a medium pot in olive oil until soft. Add garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste, herbs, lentils, salt, sugar, nutritional yeast and optional red wine. Stir well, bring to a boil, and then reduce heat and simmer with the lid on. 
  • When the water is boiling, add pasta and cook for one minute less than instructions suggest. 
  • Drain and add to the simmering sauce immediately. It's fine if a little cooking water gets into the sauce, it will only make it better. Stir well.
  • Brown the pine nuts in a small pan, dry or with a little olive oil. Careful, they burn quickly.
  • Serve the pasta with 1 teaspoon nutritional yeast sprinkled over the top as parmesan replacement, with the rocket salad and the pine nuts.
