Vegan Lentil Taco Salad Bowls are my Sunday jam! I make these most Sundays in place of the traditional Sunday roast. Not only do these taco salad bowls taste delicious, they are healthy and wholesome too!
I make the lentil base by sautéing onions, garlic and green pepper in hot oil. I cook the lentils in a pan of water. Once they are cooked, I add them to the onion pan along with black beans, tomato paste and taco seasonings. And that’s it – I assemble the salad bowls with a selection of toppings like red cabbage, avocado, green onions, tomato and lime wedges.
To make my Vegan Lentil Taco Salad Bowls, you will need the following ingredients:
Sauté the onions for 3-5 minutes in a large pot with hot oil.
Stir in the garlic and green pepper. Sauté with the onion for 3-5 minutes more or until soft.
Place the lentils in a medium sized pot with water. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 10-12 more minutes. Drain well.
Mix the lentils and black beans with the onion and green pepper. Place over low/medium heat.
Mix in the tomato paste, paprika, chili powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, red chili flakes, cumin and chipotle powder and cook for 1 more minute.
Place the lentil mixture at the bottom of 4 different bowls. Top with red cabbage, avocado, green onions, tomato and lime of juice.
