Sweet Potato, Kale, and Lentils

Sweet Potato, Kale, and Lentils
This was so goooooood! I didn't realize it would taste so sweet!
1/2 cup green lentil beans
2 cups water
3 tsp olive oil
1/3 cup red onion diced
1 cup carrots chopped
1 sweet potato chopped
2 cloves garlic diced and smashed
1 bunch kale chopped
1/4 cup water
1/2 tbs crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp lawry's  seasoning salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
In a small pot boil lentil beans and 2 cups water for 10 min while chopping veggies. Also, heat a medium sized pot with the oil in it. Once it's hot, add onion, carrots, and sweet potato and cook until somewhat soft. Add garlic and kale and stir until kale wilts. Add the lentils and all the water they were cooking in. Also add another 1/4 cup water. Add in salt, pepper, seasoning salt, and crushed red pepper. Bring to a boil if it isn't already and cover and simmer for 30 min to an hour. Depends in how wet you want it. I choose just over an hour.
I served it with grilled chicken but not necessary.
