This gentle vegan stew is designed for those with GERD (acid reflux). It uses mild, low-acid vegetables and seasonings that won’t trigger heartburn while still being hearty and flavorful.
Ingredients

Rinse lentils well and set aside.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced carrots, zucchini, and celery. Sauté for 5 minutes until softened.

Reduce heat and simmer for 20–25 minutes until lentils are tender.
Stir in spinach during the last 3 minutes of cooking until wilted.
Season lightly with salt and fresh herbs (avoid spicy seasonings).
