Anti-Inflammatory Sweet Potato Lentil Stew

Whip up this cozy one-pot anti-inflammatory sweet potato lentil stew in under an hour! Packed with protein, vitamins, and healing spices.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 2 Medium Carrots, chopped
  • 3 Small Sweet Potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon
  • 8 cups Vegetable Broth
  • 1 15oz Can Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 ½ cup Brown Lentils, uncooked
  • 3 cups Spinach, roughly chopped
  • 2-3 tbsp Chopped Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Add olive oil to a large pot.
  • Once hot, add in the onions and carrots.
  • After about 7-8 min add in the spices and cook for about a minute.
  • Add in 6 cups of broth along with the lentils, sweet potatoes, and canned tomatoes. Cook on a high heat for about 4-5 minutes then cover and reduce to a low heat. Let simmer for about 35-40 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the sweet potatoes are tender. Add in the last 2 cups of broth.
  • Add in the spinach as your final step, and cook until just shrunken in size then immediately remove from heat.
  • Optionally top with chopped parsley and a dollop of vegan labneh or sour cream.
