Heat the same pot over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then Beyond Meat® patties and mirepoix. Cook, breaking up patties into bite-sized pieces, until crispy, 5-6 min.** Season with salt.

Add lentils, crushed tomatoes, stock powder and 2 cups (3 1/2 cups) water to the same pot. Bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until lentils soften, 12-15 min. Add zucchini. Cook, stirring often, until heated through, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
