INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked lentils
1/2 cup cooked chickpeas
1 large hard-boiled egg
1 medium carrot
1 small onion
1 cup chopped kale
1 cup vegetable broth
1 clove garlic
1 tsp dried thyme
1 bay leaf
PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the cooked lentils and chickpeas if using canned varieties.
In a medium pot, heat a small amount of water or broth over medium heat and lightly sauté the minced garlic, chopped onion, and diced carrot until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the cooked lentils and chickpeas to the pot along with the vegetable broth.
Stir in the dried thyme and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Allow the stew to simmer for about 10 minutes so the flavors meld, stirring occasionally.
Add the chopped kale during the last 2 minutes of simmering, just until wilted.
Peel and slice the hard-boiled egg and gently stir it into the stew or serve it on top.
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, protein-packed stew.
