Meal ideas using kidney beans, lentils and spinach

[ifonly4]

I have tinned lentils and kidney beans in the fridge, as well as spinach which need using up today. Any ideas for something I can make with all three of them to use up please?

Definitely a nice veggie chilli with wedges

I second the chilli. If you don't fancy spices, how about a lovely chunky italian-ish soup/stew? I'd throw the pulses in a pot with italian herbs, some nice stock, a pile of extra veg (onion, garlic, courgette, carrot, mushrooms, or whatever) and cook. I'd throw the spinach in a few minutes before serving, and just have it with some crusty bread and a chunk of cheese. If it's not a big enough quantity of beans to make it filling, a handful of pasta would be nice in this too.

Thanks for the replies and bbc link. I have most of the ingredients and can improvise on the rest without going out. Forgot, I've got some part baked crusty bread that also needs using, so thanks for reminding me.
