I HAVE ALWAYS HATED SLOPPY JOES! Now that that is out of the way I LOVE this version. I married someone who ate the 'typical' america diet as a kid and he was missing sloppy joes. YUCK! I think its one of the grosses things to eat; right up there with spam! Forks Over Knives had a recipe for using lentil beans instead of ground hooves and eyes aka ground meat so I adapted it to my crockpot and simplified it.
1 1/2C lentils
1 md onion or 1/4C dried onion
1TB chili powder
4C vegetable stock
a container of your favorite BBQ sauce
water or stock to help it stay moist
low in your crockpot for about 6 hrs, I like the lentils to be mushy so I left mine longer.
feel free to add molasses or brown sugar or vinegar to spice things up or some canned tomatoes....the possibilities are endless! You could also adapt it for quinoa!
