Spicy BBQ Lentil Sweet Potatoes

Preheat oven to 425F. Bake 2 sweet potatoes for 50-60 minutes. You can prep these before and heat them up or toss them in the oven right when you get home. Then cook 1 cup of lentils in 3 cups vegetable broth (gives them more flavor vs using water) according to the package instructions until they’re soft but not mushy. Takes about 15 minutes to do this. Then heat a skillet over medium heat. Sauté 1/2 a diced onion for 5 minutes in a little bit of olive oil. Then reduce heat to low medium, add cooked lentils, then add: 1 tbsp tomato paste, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp paprika, 1/4 cup hot sauce, 1/4 cup bbq use. Mix everything together and let it cook for 3-4 minutes. You can sprinkle a little salt on top too if you want. Served with guac + jalapeños + cilantro.
