1 medium Carrot
1 Celery Stalk

Rinse the dry lentils under cold water and set aside.
Dice the carrot, celery, onion, tomato, and mince the garlic.
Cube the firm tofu into bite-sized pieces.
In a large pot, heat a small amount of water or broth over medium heat and gently sauté the onion, garlic, carrot, and celery for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the lentils, chickpeas, and tofu to the pot along with the diced tomato and vegetable broth.
Sprinkle in the mixed dried herbs, black pepper, and salt.
Bring the stew to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender.
In the last 5 minutes of cooking, stir in the spinach until wilted.
Taste and adjust seasonings as required before serving.
