I got this recipe out of the guidebook supplied in the 'Quick Cleanse 15 day detox'. This is like a vegetarian shepherds pie. I usually make it without the mushrooms (don't like them) and add some zucchini or whatever is on hand. I also tend to use red lentils because they don't need to be soaked. Prep time does not include time taken for soaking the lentils.

Steps:
- Soak the lentils for 2 hours or overnight, drain and rinse.
- Add fresh water and bring to the boil in a large saucepan with the onion powder.
- Simmer 15 minutes or until tender. Drain.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan and saute onion, garlic and mushrooms for 5 minutes.
- Add remaining vegetables and saute a further 5 minutes.
- Add lentils, seasoning, tamari, vegetable stock, herbs and tomato paste.
- Stir over heat until combined and simmer 5 minutes. Mixture should be fairly thick.
- Turn into a 5cm deep dish, top with mashed potato.
- If you're not a strict vegetarian sprinkle some grated cheese on top.
- Mark attractively with a fork and brown in a hot oven 15 minutes.
- Serve with side salad or vegetables.
