Healthy Sloppy Joes with Lentils
This version of Sloppy Joes ups the nutrition ante by swapping the meat for lentils, and adding in extra veggies. Adjust this recipe to how you prefer your Sloppy Joes--make them sweeter with additional molasses, spicier with additional chili powder, or tangier with additional mustard. Serve warm, with your favorite rolls or buns, and top with sliced red onion and fresh spinach or lettuce, if desired.
Algerian Kefta (Meatballs)
This simple meatball dish is delicious, rich, and fresh. My Algerian husband taught me it as it's one of his favorites from home. The tomato sauce can be used for anything, and the flavors can be adjusted. I like a lot of garlic and pepper. I have found halal hamburger meat to be much leaner and lighter than regular. You can find it at international food stores and halal butcher shops in bigger cities. Serve this dish with a French baguette.
Mushroom-Lentil Burgers
Mushrooms and lentils come together for a veggie burger worth making! The mushrooms yield a beefy flavor but I like to kick it up a notch by mixing steak sauce with mayo to slather on the bun for extra "beefy" flavor.
