My mom and I made a delicious dinner last night–red lentil stew, farro salad, and roasted asparagus. I can’t wait to share the amazing farro salad recipe from my mom with you, but for now here is the red lentil stew, which is one of Eric’s and my favorite go-to meals back in Seattle when we’re wanting something quick, warming and hearty.
