This recipe isn't just for vegans, but anyone who wants to eat healthier. If you're looking for a vegan meat substitute to use in burritos, wraps, tacos or other recipes, look no further. This easy lentil and brown rice vegan "meat" recipe is flavorful and cooks in a slow cooker. How easy is that? We love it as a delicious high-fiber and high-protein vegan wrap! (Check out the health benefits of fiber and the health benefits of protein.)
To make this slow-cooker vegan meat recipe you will need green lentils, brown rice, vegetable broth, onion, garlic, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, ground cumin and crushed red pepper flakes. You simply put everything into a slow cooker, turn it on and walk away. We love recipes like that!
Not only is this a delicious filling for wraps, tacos, enchiladas, burritos and even egg roll wrappers (yum!) and lettuce wraps, you could serve it as-is over lettuce for a filling and flavorful vegetarian and vegan salad. How will you eat it after you try the wrap first?
