Spicy Lentils with Broccoli and "Cheese"


1cup canned lentils
1cup broccoli
1/2 white onion finely chopped
1cup mushrooms finely chopped
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp roasted garlic flakes

Saute onion for 1 minute then add in mushrooms and sauté for another 5 min over med heat. The moisture from the mushrooms will create liquid in the pan so you don't have to add any oil. You can also add a little liquid from the lentil can to moisten if the mixture is sticking.
Add broccoli and cook stirring often until the broccoli is bright green- we don't want it overcooked!
Stir in lentils and add the cayenne and garlic flakes- more if you like it spicy!
Cover for 1 minute until the lentils are heated through.
The lentils are just being warmed. If you leave them too long they may become mushy.
Once plated you can add some Daiya cheddar style shreds if you please,
Yummy!
