with just a little bit more, you need a small amount of fruit or veg to get vitamins a and c. they have everything else you need in abundant supply.
look up dr john macdougall, he has cured thousands from chronic ailments by putting them on starch based diets.
these types of diets are the norm throughout history for almost everyone who ever lived. south america had potatoes, mexicans had corn, middle east barley and wheat, asia has rice. so there is a starch for everyone.
when studying the teeth of hunter gatherers, scientists found that their diet was almost entirely starch based, as we continue to see in most of the rural third world, where paradoxically general health outcomes are very good, at least in terms of chronic diseases.

this presentation is specifically about potatoes, but he goes into the points i made about humanity being designed to run on starch. very informative

"hunter gatherers" in times past, as well as today, ate lots more wild tubers than meat. meat makes up a very small percentage of their calories, like 10-15% max with most people. there are outliers like bushmen who eat lots of meat, same as inuit and plains indians in canada and usa. but they are beset by all kinds of chronic health problems and don't live as long as their counterparts who eat more starch, like papua new guineas and okinawans.

most starches are nutritionally complete save for vitamins a, c, d,, and b12. there is a reason that every civilization that has ever existed has been fed on starches. lentils are great, but so is rice, corn, millet, amaranth, beans etc etc.
so to complement your starch you need a small amount of veg with vitamin c, and a small amount with vitamin a. so a small serving of carrots and cabbage, which are both dirt cheap. it takes decades to run out of b12, but if you feel better get some tablets and take one once a month. they usually have 10000x the rda in one pill so even that often is most likely overkill
and lentils are very high in protein in comparison to rice. some people have kidney issues and the extra protein is hard on the kidneys because excess protein is very acidic. you only need 5-6% of your calories to come from protein. and there is also no need to mix and match for "complete proteins", the idea is nonsense and came from a 70's diet book. the author has since disavowed the idea herself in recent printings.
so to take an example from the foods you mentioned, pasta with tomatoes gives you everything except d and b12. you can live on a diet like this and not just survive, but be healthier than most people you know. cutting out excess protein and oils makes you feel like a million bucks, and i say this as a former keto and carnivore fag.

but i do agree that lentils are great, i love them myself, and they are pretty cheap too.
but i eat mainly giant bowls of rice with goy sauce and raw chopped cabbage and carrot on top. i love this and eat it every day, i never get sick of it. and as this anon says

you can pair it with all kinds of things, or just eat it on its own. chopped apples and pineapple with some cinnamon and sugar is amazing. it's like eating a big bowl of pie filling kek

sugar is not the demon it's made out to be. fat and protein are way more harmful and way more likely to cause diabetes. in fact all the studies show that sugar helps with all aspects of diabetes. dr walter kempner used a very successful diet of rice, sugar, fruit and fruit juice to reverse type 2 diabetes almost 100% of the time.
the problem is that keto thinking has polluted nutrition. even though i check his numbers, he is wrong about eating more fat and protein.

if you want to reduce inflammation in general, then a starch based diet with no added fat and low protein is the answer. humans simply cannot use all of the extra protein that a meat and egg rich diet gives us. humans actually have a worse time on vegetarian/vegan processed foods like fake meat, as they are all isolated proteins. when you eat all of this you break it all down into ammonia, which places a huge load on your system, including your kidneys. humans only need about 5-6% protein in their diet, and as millenia of asians have shown us, people can live perfectly well on rice, which has 7-9% protein iirc.

now this guy is not so down with table sugar, but he is type 1 diabetic and this diet is for them. but he and his business partner went down the whole keto and weston a price route, and paid the price. they have some really great lectures on that channel that can teach you a lot about how the body works.

macdougall was a great man too, and has a plethora of amazing presentations on all manner of subjects. he explains that the whole point of eating is the raise the blood sugar, because that's what the body uses.
