Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet.
Brown the onions for 2-3 minutes then add the textured vegetable protein, red lentils, vegetable broth, spices, salt and pepper. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
Cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
Add the quick oats and continue cooking uncovered for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. At this point all the liquid should be absorbed.
Add nutritional yeast and mix well. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Place the mixture in small individual jars and let cool completely in the refrigerator. Serve with mustard and small pickles.

The Vegan spread will keep for a week in the refrigerator and can be conserved frozen for several months.
