  • 1 cup dried lentils (green or brown), rinsed 
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, with juices
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  2. Pour in the chicken broth and add the dried thyme, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the lentils are tender and the chicken is fully cooked.
