Easy Vegan Lentil Shawarma
As Shawarma is one of the most famous and loved food in the Middle East and
far beyond I was eager to create a vegan version which will satisfy these
shawarma cravings ;-) This vegan lentil shawarma hits the spot. It is done in
less than an hour, is very filling due to its high protein content and tastes
delicious. You can play around with different add ons to make it every time a
little bit different. You can eighter use small or big Arabic bread, I found
the big ones easier to roll. Enjoy!
