Step 1

Place a large pot on the stove, turn to medium heat, add the oil. Swirl the oil around the pan, then drop in the onions. Allow to cook for 3-5 minutes until translucent and slightly browned.

Step 2

Add the garlic. Toss for about 1 minute, then add the remainder of veggies and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 3

Let the veggies cook for 5-8 minutes until they begin to soften, then toss in the lentils and chickpeas, season with a pinch of salt and pepper again and mix so everything gets combined.

Step 4

our in the veggie broth, season one more time, bring to a boil and simmer for 20-25 minutes.

Step 5

Once simmer time is over, add in the kale so it brightens and gets slightly cooked. You can also make a big batch of this stew in advance, because it freezes super well.
