One of my favorite recipes I've tried lately is this recipe for red lentil sauce.

It's one of those recipes with hidden vegetables and pulses that are also perfect for kids who don't easily eat pulses (like mine). Of course it's for us adults too.

INGREDIENTS AND SUBSTITUTIONS

Red lentils: Red lentils boil very quickly and this is perfect because in 15 minutes you will have ready the most nutritious sauce for your pasta.

Onion: Onion, like garlic, is not one of the basic ingredients. You can also not put it.

Tomato sauce: If you have your own tomato sauce you can use it. Otherwise, you can get ready-made from the supermarket.

Vegetable broth: Just drop a cube of vegetables into your hot water and stir.
