LENTIL STEW WITH SPINACH AND POTATOES
This recipe makes a very hearty and healthy vegetarian main dish. It's based on a recipe I found in an old Bon Appetit magazine. The original recipe calls for a 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper as well which you can add if you like spice. Recipe can easily be doubled to serve 6-8. It freezes well too.

SPICY LENTIL AND SWEET POTATO STEW WITH CHIPOTLES
The sweetness of the sweet potatoes infuses this Mexican-inspired lentil dish along with the heat of the chipotles, which also have a certain sweetness as well because of the adobo sauce they're they are packed in. The combination, with the savory lentils, is a winner.
