1/2 medium onion
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper (75g)
1/2 medium zucchini (90g)

1 cup fresh spinach (30g)
2 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 cups vegetable broth

PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the red lentils and chickpeas if using canned products. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Chop the carrot, celery, onion, red bell pepper, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onions, sautéing until translucent.
Add the carrots, celery, red bell pepper, and zucchini to the pot. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
Stir in the red lentils, chickpeas, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, dried thyme, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce heat and let the stew simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender and the flavors meld together.
Gently fold in the tofu and spinach, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the bay leaf and serve hot, enjoying the heartiness and warmth of this robust vegetable stew.
