Spaghetti with meat sauce is practically the definition of a home-cooked family dinner (especially if you're Italian), but it's not exactly a dish you want to. I use red lentils in it as they add texture but are not overly earthy like whole lentils. You can use whole brown or green lentils, chickpeas as well or skinned whole red lentils. But we had so many left over, that the next time we ate them, we changed it up completely and served them with mashed potatoes and gravy. It's easily customizable and comes together quick enough for a busy weeknight meal!
