INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup dry red lentils (approx 65g)
1/2 cup canned chickpeas, drained (approx 125g)
1/2 cup diced tomatoes (approx 120g)
1/4 cup light coconut milk (approx 60g)
1 cup fresh spinach (approx 30g)
1/4 medium yellow onion (approx 40g)
1 garlic clove
1 tsp fresh grated ginger
1 tsp olive oil
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (approx 60g)
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water.
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion, garlic, and grated ginger until softened and fragrant.
Add the red lentils, diced tomatoes, chickpeas, and spices (cumin, turmeric, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper) to the pan. Stir to combine.
Pour in the light coconut milk and about 1 cup of water. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Allow the stew to cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the red lentils are soft and the stew has thickened slightly.
Stir in the fresh spinach and let it wilt for 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the stew in bowls and top each serving with a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt for creaminess.
