My philosophy is simple: I believe what we consume is everything—from the foods we put in our body, to the ideas we feed for our minds, to the connections we have with others. Everything gives you energy, and what you take in determines how your life will be. My goal is to champion a healthy lifestyle that is simple, accessible, and gives your body what it needs to fuel your best life possible.
Prep: 15 min
Cook: 25 min
Cook the spaghetti to 2 min less than package directions.
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray. Toss together spaghetti, lentils, marinara and basil. Spread out into a baking dish. Top with mozzarella cheese and cover the dish with aluminum foil. Bake for 25 minutes, remove the foil and cook for 5 more minutes or until the cheese is bubbly. Cut and serve.
Plant-based: Use vegan cheese shreds instead of mozzarella.
Gluten-free: Use gluten-free spaghetti.
Meat-eater in the group: Try seasoned and cooked ground turkey instead of lentils.
Kid-friendly: Make a small portion without lentils if not preferred.
Quick Prep: Meal prep pasta ahead of time so it’s a quick meal you can throw into the oven on a weekday night.
