party for mouths:

1 cup green lentils
10'ish tomatoes
summer veggies (like: zucchini, squash, ect)
purple onion or scallions
1-2 bell peppers (any color...i like red)
3 cups veggie broth
cheese, yogurt, or kefir
tomato paste (optional)
olive oil (i like to use the spray to cut back on fat)
1-2 spaghetti squash
garlic bulb
wine (red or white)

preheat the oven to 450*

1. chop time:
half or quarter the tomatoes depending on the size.
chunk up the purple onions
chop up your other veggies
half the spaghetti squash and remove the pulp
cut the top off of the garlic bulb (about a 1/2 inch)

2. cover it up
to avoid killing your pans, cover them up in foil....trust me the tomatoes make a mess

3. make it glitter
spray the foil in your pans with olive oil
spray the cut side of the spaghetti squash and put it cut side down in pan
put the tomatoes cut side up in a pan and spray, then add your favorite spices like glitter!
do the same to all the other veggies too
put the garlic bulb in a ramekin and pour a little olive oil on it

4. burn baby burn----oven inferno
stick it all in the oven for about 45 mins
the veggies might char a little, but that's ok

5. rock and roll
bring the lentils and veggie broth to a rocking and rolling boil, then turn to low and cover for 45 mins'ish...give it a little stir from time to time (the moisture should be mostly absorbed)

6. get naked
when the veggies are done, peel the char off of the bell peppers and chop. put the spaghetti squash off to the side to cool. pop the cloves of garlic out of the paper, and chop a little.

7. stir it up
add everything but the s. squash to the lentils and i like to put wine and tomato paste in there to thicken it up. bring it to a good boil, stirring it regularly. cook some of the moisture out. season to taste with you pick of goods....this could be Italian, curried....I mean, this could go many different ways...have fun!

8. do the string thing
with a fork scoop and fluff the noodles out of the squash

9. nom nom nom
use the squash like noodles, put the sauce on top, then your pick of creamy something and then.......ITS A SUMMER PARTY IN YOUR MOUTH!***
