Mental lentils - Buon appatito!


This is a great recipe, not just because it's so simple but it's one that can use all those ingredients you already have - I didn't need to buy anything! The sauce compliments the beans really well, and I recommend you throw in the frozen veggies two minutes before serving to provide a contrasting crunch!

Quick, inexpensive and really full of flavour.

You will need:

1 small can mixed beans
 1/2 cup brown lentils, canned or prepared earlier
Small onion diced super finely
Half cup of frozen veg - I used peas, corn and carrot but would suit whatever is in your freezer
Tsp dried Chilli flakes
Tbs honey
2 tbs soy sauce
1 cup spinach leaves
2 wraps, defrosted

METHOD: basically caramelize the onion and then throw everything into a saucepan on a low heat - you need everything to defrost in the honey and soy and for that sauce to thicken with the starches of the beans.
Microwave your wraps and spoon the mixture in evenly. If you wanted, you could brown them after but I like em soft!

Da daah!
