Easy 4-Ingredient Lentils and Sausage Recipe With Trader Joe’s Ingredients

As much as I love to cook, sometimes I don’t have the patience to choose a recipe, labor over the cook top, and spend a whole lot of time making something that I will inevitably finish eating in, like, 6 minutes. Just because I want something quick, however, does not mean I have to sacrifice quality for convenience.

Cue Trader Joe’s entrance. Once again, my homie knows how to get it done. This lentils recipe is not only filling and delicious, but it is so easy, I could do it half asleep (which I did, not too long ago).

#SpoonTip: If sweet basil sausage ain’t your thang, try the sundried tomato sausage.
