2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup fresh spinach

PREPARATION
Rinse the lentils and, if not already cooked, boil them until tender then drain.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrot. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the cooked lentils, cannellini beans, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot.
Toss in the bay leaf and dried thyme, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
Bring the stew to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Just before serving, stir in the fresh spinach and let it wilt for about 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, then serve warm.
