    Method

    1. In a large pot, add onion and half a cup of water. Cook until onion starts to turn translucent and add more water if needed.
    2. Add garlic, oregano, thyme and lentils, mixing well (add the tiniest bit of water if ingredients start to stick to bottom of pan).
    3. Once you start to smell the fragrance of the herbs add pasta sauce, passata, red wine, salt, pepper, sunflower seeds and nut meal. Incorporate well on medium heat.
    4. Once bubbles start to appear on surface add chopped parsley or basil and simmer on low heat for a minimum of 20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sauce from burning on the bottom of pot.
    5. Take sauce off the heat and mix in hemp seeds before serving on top of your favourite pasta. Buon appetito!
