Ingredients

Method

In large saucepan or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat; cook onions, garlic and chili powder, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add tomatoes, breaking up with spoon. Add vegetable stock, water and lentils; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until lentils are softened, about 20 minutes.

Add chickpeas, red kidney beans and black beans; cook until heated through, about 15 minutes. (Make-ahead: Let cool for 30 minutes; refrigerate in shallow airtight containers for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 2 weeks. Reheat to continue.)

Stir in coriander, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
