INGREDIENTS
80g Red Lentils (raw)
126g Extra-Firm Tofu
1 medium Carrot, diced
1 stalk Celery, diced
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, diced
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 cup Vegetable Broth
1 tsp Olive Oil
Herbs and Spices to taste (thyme, bay leaf, pepper, salt)
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly under cool water and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the red lentils and cook for an additional minute to toast them lightly.
Pour in the vegetable broth and diced tomatoes. Add a bay leaf and a pinch of thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat and allow the stew to cook gently for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
Cube the extra-firm tofu and add it to the stew, along with the baby spinach. Stir and let it heat through for an additional 5 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional herbs and spices if needed. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy this hearty, nutrient-packed stew.
