Steps:

• Add all of the lentil sloppy joe ingredients (no coleslaw ingredients yet) into the slow cooker. Mix everything together until well combined.
• Cover and cook for 3 1/2 hours on high in your slow cooker (or Instant Pot set to Slow Cook.)

• Once the lentil sloppy joes have started cooking, you can make the coleslaw by simply combining all the ingredients in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate. You can also make this just before the lentil sloppy joes are done but leaving it to set for a while makes the flavors come together wonderfully.
• Once the lentil sloppy joes are finished cooking, serve them on fresh hamburger buns, topped with coleslaw.

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add carrots and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, about 8 minutes. Stir in garlic and chili powder; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar and scrape up any browned bits.
• Coat a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Drain and rinse the soaked beans; transfer to the slow cooker. Stir in bell pepper, tomato sauce, water, soy sauce (or tamari) and tomato paste to combine. Spread the carrot-onion mixture over the bean mixture, but don't stir the two together. (The layer on top helps keep the beans submerged during cooking so they don't dry out.) Cover and cook on High for 5 hours or Low for 9 hours.
• Stir in cabbage, zucchini, corn, honey mustard, brown sugar and salt; cook on High for 30 minutes.

• Meanwhile, toast the buns. Brush insides with olive oil and place cut-side-up under the broiler in your oven. Broil 30 - 60 seconds until golden.
• Place buns on plate and spoon filling over the top. Add toppings if desired. Serve.
• Leftover filling keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Steps:

• Spray your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray. Add all the ingredients, and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. If you find your mixture is too wet, drape a towel under the lid to absorb excess moisture during the final hour of cooking. Alternatively, add water in 1/4 cup increments if mix is too dry. Serve on either hamburger, slider, or mini-slider buns and top with cheese if desired.
