Everybody loves a good slow cooker recipe — and that includes ones without meat or dairy.

TBS
Chana Masala

If you've never had chana masala (AKA chickpeas cooked in a spiced tomato sauce) this is the perfect recipe to start with. (Just beware that you do have to precook the ginger and onions, so it's not a true dump-and-go recipe.) Get the recipe here.
Lentil Chili

This is the kind of chili that's practically screaming for toppings — and with variations for stove-top, Instant Pot, and slow cooker methods, you can pick a recipe that works for your schedule. Get the recipe here.
