Pasta’s always a good idea, isn’t it? We’re giving this Italian classic a whole food plant-based makeover to make it healthier. We’re using wholegrain pasta and replace the meat with healthy, protein-rich lentils. The result is a taste explosion that is bursting with nutrients and fiber and keeps you sated for a long time.
Therefore, even if you want to lose weight, you can dig in as much as everyone else. When we switched to a whole food plant-based diet, we all lost a few kilos in the beginning, even though we ate as much as we wanted. No calorie counting, no cutting out carbs or desserts. Sounds too good to be true? You better believe it, because it is true.
We wanted everyone to be able to cook whole food plant-based meals and that’s why we have written a cookbook. Many of the recipes are prepared in less than 30 minutes. The ingredients are clearly listed and the instructions follow immediately. Recipes that can be read and executed from top to bottom. Cooking healthily has never been this easy!

The spaghetti Bolognese recipe serves four and we also recommend various vegetables as a side dish. The sauce is prepared in just 15 minutes. Let it simmers to let the different flavours unfold until the lentils are cooked and the pasta is al dente.
If the lentils are ready before the spaghetti, pour off the water and leave the lentils in the pan with the lid on until everything is ready to serve.
Our tip: The sauce can also be prepared the day before. The longer it simmers, the more the different flavors unfold. Yummy! Is your mouth already watering? Then let’s get started with the vegan spaghetti Bolognese recipe:
- 800 g chopped tomatoes (2 cans)
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 onion, chopped finely
- 4 tbsp basil
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
Briefly sauté the garlic and onion with 200 ml water. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and let simmer.
- 200 g beluga lentils (black lentils)
Heat water for the beluga lentils. When it boils, add the lentils. Cook until they still have a slight bite (takes about 20 minutes).
- 300 g whole-grain spaghetti
Cook the spaghetti al dente (follow the instructions on the packet). Just before serving, add the lentils to the sauce, mix and pour over the spaghetti. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
