Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 medium onion, chopped (optional)
3 cups canned vegetable broth
1 cup lentils, rinsed , picked over
8 oz red potatoes , cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 lemon
6 oz torn fresh spinach leaves (about 8 cups) or 6 oz fresh kale (about 8 cups)
3/4 tsp cumin
3/4 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Directions:

Heat olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and onion and stir 30 seconds. Add vegetable broth and lentils; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes. Add potatoes; cook uncovered until potatoes and lentils are tender, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, grate 1/2 teaspoon peel from lemon; squeeze enough juice from lemon to measure 2 tablespoons. Add lemon peel, lemon juice, spinach, cumin, thyme, and cayenne to stew. Cover and simmer stew until spinach wilts and is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Mix in mint. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over low heat before serving.).
Spoon stew into large soup bowls. Sprinkle feta cheese over, if desired.
