INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup dry red lentils
2/3 cup cooked chickpeas
1/3 cup light coconut milk
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup fresh spinach
1/4 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, lightly sauté the diced onion and minced garlic over medium heat until softened.
Add the rinsed lentils and cooked chickpeas to the saucepan along with the diced tomatoes and light coconut milk.
Sprinkle in the ground cumin, turmeric, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
Add enough water to just cover the ingredients, bring the mixture to a simmer, and let it cook for about 20 minutes until the lentils are tender and the flavors meld.
Stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted, then remove the pot from heat.
Swirl in the nonfat Greek yogurt for extra creaminess, adjust the seasoning if needed, and serve hot.
