“Beety” Lentil Noodle Stew

Cozy 1-pot “Beety” Lentil Noodle Stew with lentils and beet noodles. Perfect to meal prep for cold winter work nights made easy.

Hey, you!

I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!

Dan and I were lucky to spend time with tons of family, some that we haven’t seen in years.

Do you ever get the post- holiday blues?

You know, that awkward feeling of, oh, now what?

After the table is cleared and family starts to dissipate, I always start to feel a little funny as my mind shifts from “holiday-mode” to the post-holiday-world.

I’ve even been known to be downright glum as the warm glow of festivities is slowly enveloped by too early night skies.

Luckily, the post-holiday world is one with stews.

Warm, hearty, comfy, cozy stews.

This “Beety” Lentil Stew warms you from the inside out and puts on a smile on your face on the darkest of evenings.

Let’s get blues-bustin’!

Veggie Noodle Co. Beet Spirals

Your woes don’t stand a chance against these comforting bowls!

You’re going to love the earthy combination of beets, lentils, carrots, and mushrooms as the base for this hearty stew.

I love beets, but I do kind of dread preparing them.

I never wear gloves and instead rock the red stains like a “beety” bad-ass.

Yeah, I said it.

Using Veggie Noodle Co. Beet Spirals in this recipe is effortless because the beets are already washed, spiraled, and ready to go straight out of the packaging.

What You Need to Make “Beety” Lentil Noodle Stew

Here’s what you need:

• veggie broth or avocado oil
• yellow onion
• white button mushrooms
• celery
• garlic powder
• dried thyme
• dried rosemary
• tomato paste
• dry red wine
• veggie broth
• carrots
• Veggie Noodle Co. Beet Spirals*
• lentils
• bay leaf
• Himalayan sea salt
• pepper

That’s it!

How to Serve “Beety” Lentil Noodle Stew

Enjoy this “Beety” Lentil Noodle Stew whenever you’re in need of a super comforting one-pot meal.

I like to make big pot for myself and eat and reheat bowls all week long, but it’s also perfect for a family meal.

Like most things, this stew is amazing served with sliced avocado for extra creaminess and healthy fats!

To mix things up, try adding cubed sweet potato instead of carrot for a little extra sweetness.

I won’t lie, I was pretty excited to add a splash of dry red to the pan and to commemorate I scattered some of the wine bottles we’ve collected in the photos.

If you don’t have a bottle of red open, no worries.

It’ll still taste great without it.

Enjoy!
