    List of Ingredients

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1 cup dried lentils -- rinsed, sorted
    2 cups water
    1 1/2 cups chopped celery
    1 1/2 cups chopped carrots
    1 cup chopped onions
    3/4 cup ketchup
    2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
    2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce, vegan (read label)
    2 tablespoons cider vinegar
    10 sesame seed buns -- split, toasted

    Recipe

    In medium saucepan, combine lentils and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 minutes.

    In 3 1/2 to 4-quart slow cooker, combine celery, carrots, onions, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and lentils with water; mix well.

    Cover; cook on low setting for 10 to 12 hours.

    Just before serving, stir in vinegar. Spoon 1/2 cup filling into each toasted bun.

    10 sandwiches

    Healthy Hint: Lentils are an inexpensive protein source; they are high in fiber, complex carbohydrates, and B vitamins.

    Kitchen Tip: Use a food processor to make quick work of chopping the vegetables for these Veggie Joes. Two carrots, two stalks of celery and two medium onions yield the measured amounts.
