- Super Easy
- Comforting
- Healthy
- One-pot
- Only £1 pp

Using these simple ingredients you can buy from most supermarkets.
Since cutting out meat I personally miss those deep coloured and flavoured beef stews but this one really hits the spot.
The chunky veg gives it such a comforting feel.
The lentils and mushrooms gives it a meaty texture.
And the cacao powder and tamari gives it such a depth in colour and flavour.
It’s such a family friendly comforting dinner recipe to serve up on these cold evenings.
You could totally batch cook this for even cheaper and freeze it down for a healthy “ready meal” to have on those busier days.

Immediately added this to next weeks meal plan as soon as I got the email! Looks so incredible
Thank you Chloe 🙂 enjoy and let me know how you get on!
just made this, and added a couple of handfuls of spinach just before serving. it. was. DELICIOUS! i’ve been searching for a veggie stew like this ever since I became vegetarian 3 years ago. thank you so much!
Beautiful, easy recipe. Perfect winter warmer. Best stew recipe I’ve had in nearly 2 years of veganism!
Loved this. Added some spinach leaves towards the end of cooking & had to use cocoa instead of cacao (put slightly less in than the recipe suggested just in case it didn’t work). Really tasty and meat-stew loving husband was also impressed. First recipe of yours … will be back!
This is going in my list for meals next week. Looks yummy. I’ll buy the ingredients from my local farm shop this afternoon.
Enjoy Kevin, let me know what you think 🙂
Another great recipe James, easy to make and enjoyed by all the family with leftovers for later. Definite keeper ❤️
Thank you for the lovely review Cathy! So pleased everyone enjoyed it 🙂
Hi,
I can’t get cans of green lentils. I am going to try red lentils (dried). Any advice for this?
Thanks
Hi Tim,
I would advise adding the red lentils about 15 minutes before the end of cooking time and don’t add too many otherwise it will go very stodgy. I would try 1 cup or so and see how you get on.
