  • Bring a large pot to medium heat and add a splash of neutral cooking oil or vegetable broth. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the rosemary, thyme, and black pepper to taste, then sauté for an additional 1 to 2 minutes
  • Next, add the lentils, sweet potatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir and bring to a boil over high heat, then cover and let simmer on medium-low heat for 20-30 minutes, until the lentils are fully cooked. Turn off the heat, then stir in the spinach until wilted.
