Ingredients
-
1 Tsp coconut oil
1 yellow onion, diced
3 carrots, halved and sliced
1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic, (about 3 cloves)
1 tsp. ground cumin
2/3 cup uncooked pearl or quick-cooking barley
8 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth
15 oz. diced tomatoes, with their liquid, plus 1 can water
1/2 cup dried lentils
1/2 tsp. salt
5 - 6 oz. spinach (about 4 cups)
Directions
In a Dutch oven or large stockpot, heat the oil over medium-high heat and when it is hot, add the onions and carrots. Sauté it until the onions just begin to brown, about 10 minutes.
Add the garlic, cumin and barley and sauté them for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant. Add the broth, tomatoes, water and lentils, cover and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, partially cover the pot, and simmer it for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender.
Stir in the salt and the spinach, cover and simmer it for 5 – 8 more minutes until the spinach is wilted. Serve it immediately.
