High in Protein, spicy, smokey & soft
Vegan mince bowl is a perfect healthy lunch or healthy dinner. It is full of flavor – a little bit sweet and spicy, smokey and soft. I like to prepare it on the weekend and enjoy it during the week. Combine it with veggies and grains and it makes a very quick lunch or dinner. I add any cooked grains I have (rice, bulgur, couscous etc.), salad and chopped veggies. It is also amazing, if you want to get enough plant based protein: lentils and vegan mince are both perfect sources of vegan protein. Furthermore, preparing them according to this recipe, makes them incredibly tasty.
I am using soy mince for this recipe. You have to prepare it according to the instructions. I also used canned lentils – you can definitely use cooked lentils. I am also using brown sugar, not a lot, just a little bit to caramelize mince and lentils. Do not substitute for liquid sweeteners, like maple syrup – this way the mince will not caramelize.
