INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup dry Red Lentils (~100g)
1/3 cup cooked Chickpeas (~55g)
1 cup chopped Kale (~67g)
0.75 oz Toasted Pumpkin Seeds (~21g)
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes (~124g)
1 small Carrot (~50g)
1/2 medium Onion (~50g)
2 cloves Garlic (~6g)
2 cups Vegetable Broth
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water and set aside.
In a large pot, add a splash of water and sauté the diced onion, minced garlic, and chopped carrot over medium heat until they soften, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the red lentils and diced tomatoes, then pour in the vegetable broth.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
Add the chopped kale and the cooked chickpeas; simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the kale wilts.
While the stew simmers, toast the pumpkin seeds in a dry skillet over low heat for 2-3 minutes until they are fragrant and lightly browned.
Season the stew with salt and pepper to taste, then serve hot and garnish with the toasted pumpkin seeds.
