Instructions
1
Finely chop the vegetables and cook in a pan for 10 minutes with a bit of oil until tender (if you use the spices we mention down below, then add at the end of this step).
2
Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
3
Add half of the tomato sauce and the cooked lentils into a pan and cook together for 10 minutes to thicken it. Add more salt if necessary.
4
Add some of the lentils to each tortilla, roll it up, and place lined up in an oven-safe dish. Add the rest of the tomato sauce on top, making sure to spread it out evenly. Sprinkle some cheese on top.
5
Bake for 10 minutes.
Tips & Tricks
Add some garlic powder, pepper, and paprika when you cook the vegetables to add more flavor.
Add a pinch of cumin and a teaspoon of chili powder to achieve a more Mexican flavor.
If you like spice, add some tabasco, or your favorite hot sauce.
Serve with some avocado to add a nice flavor contrast.
If you would like to make this vegan, add vegan cheese.
