From Safeway Brand Lentils package: Our tasters gave four-stars to this nutritious and easy to prepare entree. Smokey sausage, lots of spices and fresh greens give it wonderful flavor . I have made this stew a couple of times, each to success. I usually use what I have in the pantry, so it never - comes out exactly the same. I am posting the recipe as written - make adjustments for your own preferences. Ingredients:

2 onions, chopped (about 2 cups) |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
4 carrots, coarsely chopped |

4 cups chicken broth |
1 teaspoon dried sage |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1 teaspoon salt (to taste) |
1 lb fresh kale, stems trimmed, leaves choppped (about 8 cups, could use spinach) |
Directions:
1. In a 6 to 8 quart pot of Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat.
2. Saute onions, garlic and carrots until soft, about 10 minutes.
3. Add sausage, lentils, broth, sage, thyme, pepper and salt.
