Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, sauté the onion over medium heat until it begins to brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Add all of the ingredients except for the spinach and stir to combine. Cover and bring the pot to a boil.
Once a full boil is reached, lower the heat to medium low and allow the stew to cook at a gentle boil about 15 minutes.
Remove the cover from the pot and add all of the spinach. It’s okay if the pot is very full at this point; the spinach will cook down.
Put the cover back on and allow the spinach to steam about 30 seconds to 1 minute before stirring it into the stew to incorporate it.
Cook an additional 2 minutes then serve over cooked brown rice.
Notes
Olive oil can be used in lieu of grapeseed oil.
