The base of this sassy meal is red lentil pasta, and it comes together in no time at all!
The meal prep on this one begins with cleaning and halving Brussel sprouts and coating them in olive oil and some salt and pepper.
Roast them up for about 20 min in a 400 degree oven while you put a pot of water on to boil.
When your pasta is a minute from being done, throw in some spinach, and you’re just about done!
Dude, your pasta is red!
