Ingredients
Preparation
Prepare lentil sausage mixture: Place all ingredients in a pan, heat and mix well . If the mixture is too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons water and cook until the spices and sauce completely coat the lentils and the mixture thickens slightly. Taste and adjust flavor and set aside.
Prepare the cashew nut sauce: Drain the cashew nuts and add them to the blender. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until the mixture is creamy and thick.
You may need to shuffle it 2-3 times. Blend for about 30 seconds, then let sit to allow the cashews to soak for another 4-5 minutes, then blend again. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
Sauté the vegetables: Place the peppers and onions in a pan over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 or 1 teaspoon oil, a little salt and pepper and cook until lightly browned along some edges. Pour into a bowl and set aside.
Then paste the mushrooms in the same pan. Add a teaspoon of oil, salt and pepper as needed, then cook until mushrooms are golden brown, then set aside.
Prepare the quinoa: If you haven’t already prepared the quinoa, rinse and toss with 1 cup water and a pinch add a saucepan of salt and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook until quinoa is frothy, about 12 to 15 minutes.
Assemble the bowl: Add a good portion of lentil sausage mix, quinoa, roasted vegetables and mushrooms, greens, chopped tomatoes, then garnish with dollops of pizza sauce and dollops of cashew mozzarella cheese Sauce .
Then sprinkle with chopped fresh basil and serve. < /span>
