INGREDIENTS
1.25 cups cooked red lentils (250g)
0.5 cup cooked chickpeas (82g)
3 ounces firm tofu (85g)
1 cup diced tomatoes (240g)
1 medium carrot (61g)
1 stalk celery (40g)
1 cup fresh spinach (30g)
2 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons olive oil
Mixed herbs and spices (to taste)
PREPARATION
Rinse the lentils and place them in a pot with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
While the lentils cook, heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
Add diced carrots and celery to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes until slightly softened.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, cooked chickpeas, and tofu cubes. Let them cook together for 3-4 minutes.
Once the lentils are tender, add them to the vegetable mixture along with the fresh spinach and a sprinkle of mixed herbs and spices. Stir gently.
Allow the stew to simmer for another 5-7 minutes so that all the flavors meld together. Adjust salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, nutrient-packed lentil and vegetable stew.
