Pour the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth into the pot and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook uncovered for 10 minutes. Stir in the canned lentils and cook uncovered for another 10 minutes.
While the sauce is simmering, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to the package directions. Divide evenly among bowls.
