1 stalk Celery (≈40g)
1 small Onion (≈70g)

PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly under cold water and set aside.
Dice the onion, carrot, and celery. Mince the garlic.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion, carrot, and celery for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, and smoked paprika. Stir well and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the diced tomatoes with their juices. Stir to combine.
Add the rinsed red lentils and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.
Cover the pot and let the stew simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender.
In the final 5 minutes of cooking, stir in the fresh spinach and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the bay leaf before serving, and ladle the hearty stew into bowls.
