INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked lentils
3 oz tempeh
1 medium carrot
1 stalk celery
1 small onion
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup vegetable broth
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat a large pot over medium heat and drizzle with a small amount of water or a splash of vegetable broth if desired to sauté the vegetables.
Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery to the pot. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the vegetables begin to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried rosemary and sauté for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Dice or crumble the tempeh into bite-sized pieces and add it to the pot. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes to lightly brown the tempeh.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the diced tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Add the cooked lentils to the pot, stirring to combine well. Allow the stew to simmer for 10-15 minutes so the flavors meld together.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the stew hot and enjoy a hearty, herb-packed meal.
