2 cups brown or green lentils
\n1 quart vegetable broth, divided
\n1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
\n1\/2 green bell pepper (about 3\u20444 cup diced)
\n1 medium onion (about 1 cup diced)
\n4 garlic cloves
\n2 tablespoons olive oil
\n1 cup plus 2 tablespoons Sugar free ketchup, divided* I have shared the recipe if you would like a tag to it just let me know
\n2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon vegan Worcestershire sauce, divided (optional)
\n1 teaspoon each mustard powder, onion powder, and chili powder
\nPickled onions, to serve
\nBread and butter pickles, to serve
\n8 whole wheat buns ( or Homemade buns)<\/p>\n
Cook the lentils: In a large saucepan, place the lentils with 3 cups of the vegetable broth, 2 cups water, and 1\u20442 teaspoon kosher salt.
\nBring to a rapid simmer.
\nReduce the heat and simmer uncovered for about 20 to 25 minutes, until the lentils are tender but still hold their shape (start tasting at 15 minutes; the exact timing depends on the heat level and your pan size). Drain the excess liquid.
\nMeanwhile, make the sauce: Once you\u2019ve started the lentils, dice the bell pepper. Dice the onion. Mince the garlic.
\nIn another large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook 5 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add vegetable broth, 1 cup ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, onion powder, and chili powder. Simmer for 5 minutes until thickened.
\nAdd the lentils to the sauce: When the lentils are done, add them to the sauce.
\nCook on low heat for about 5 minutes.
\nThen remove the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1\u20442 teaspoon kosher salt.
\nServe: Serve on a bun with pickled onions and pickles. (If desired, toast the buns prior to serving.) Make ahead: Leftovers save well for 3 to 4 days. Make in advance, refrigerate and then reheat in a saucepan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
