chopped vegetables for lentil stew

If you are looking for a great healthy cold weather dish, I highly recommend trying this tasty recipe. My mom is a vegetarian, and I worked to perfect this recipe because I love lentils, and I wanted something she could also enjoy. The flavor comes from all the vegetables, and I have found that using chicken stock is not necessary. I load it up with other healthy things, such as spinach and carrots. This is one of my go-to lunches that I try to eat once a week all year round.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  1. 1/4 cup Lentils
  2. 1 Garlic Clove
  3. 1/2 cup Onion
  4. 1 Celery Stalk
  5. 1 Carrot
  6. 4 ounces Spinach
  7. 1 Russet Potato
  8. 2 cups Water
  9. 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  10. 1/4 Teaspoon Black Pepper
  11. 1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

Instructions

  1. Boil Water In Sauce Pan
  2. Chop everything into spoon size bites and slice garlic
  3. Add Lentils and turn the heat down to medium-low
  4. Add chopped ingredients and spices
  5. Cover and cook with a gentle rolling boil for 30 minutes
  6. Cook out the remaining liquid by turning the heat up to high and make sure to continuously stir stew for 10 minutes

Notes

You can substitute a sweet potato if you want it to be healthier, but I find the starch from the Russet Potato helps fuse the flavors of all the vegetables.

I actually eat 2 portions myself for lunch, but I use a small potato if you are sharing use a very large potato.

Also, be careful not to let this burn. I have ruined more than one pot.
