Here’s my take on a veggie chili. A nutritious, iron and fiber-rich and filling dinner for the family! I love to sneak in greens where I can, and since there’s so much tomato sauce along with the burst of corn,  the kids don’t even notice the greens;) Make this in batches and freeze for future use. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do:)

Ingredients:

  • 3 cup lentils
  • 3 cups tomato sauce
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup frozen organic corn
  • 2 1/2 cups fresh OR frozen organic kale
  • salt/pepper/chili powder
  • olive oil

Directions:

  1. 2 cups lentils boiled in water + 1 tbs salt and 1 whole clove garlic. Boil and reduce to medium heat for 30 min.
  2. in a separate pot sauté one whole finely chopped onion and 2 cloves garlic. Once golden, add 3 cups fresh jarred tomato sauce and bring to a boil. Lower to medium heat and simmer for 30 min.
  3. once ready, add cooked lentils to tomato sauce
  4. add kale and corn
  5. add 4 tbs olive oil (salt/pepper/chili powder to taste)
  6. stir well and allow all to simmer another 10-15 min. and enjoy!
