Thai Basil Lentil Stir Fry

Ingredients

• Start by making the sauce: in a medium bowl, whisk together all the sauce ingredients until combined. Set aside.
• Prepare the vegetables: cut onion, bell peppers, and celery into medium-large dice (about 1-inch pieces).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add avocado oil. Add diced onion, bell peppers, and celery, and saute until just starting to become tender, about 7-8 minutes.
• Add the drained lentils, and stir to combine.
• Pour the sauce into the skillet, stir, and bring to a simmer.
• Add the diced tomatoes and chopped Thai basil, and stir to combine.
• Allow the mixture to simmer 1-2 minutes, just until the tomatoes begin to soften.
• Remove the skillet from the heat, stir in cashews, and serve the stir fry immediately over cooked rice.
