How to Make It

  1. 1

    Rinse lentils. Dice vegetables small.

  2. 2

    Combine everything in a pot with water. Bring to a boil, then simmer 18-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    The lentils will break down and thicken the stew naturally.

  4. 4

    Mash or blend to desired consistency. Drizzle with olive oil and serve.

    Tip: Red lentils cook down to mush — perfect for baby texture.
