Slow Cooker Lentil Sloppy Joes that are cooked in an Italian inspired tomato sauce with bell peppers, mushrooms, crushed tomatoes, garlic, and Italian seasoning. A great vegetarian entree. These Tuscan Lentil Sloppy Joes couldn't be easier to make with the crockpot doing all the hard work. This vegetarian meal is filling, nutritious, and great for an easy weeknight meal or meal prep.
