Method
 

How to Make Roasted Tomato, White Bean and Spinach Stew
  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped sweet onion and sauté until it becomes translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  2. Toss in the cherry or grape tomatoes, kosher salt, black pepper, and vegetable broth if you're using it. Cook until the tomatoes start to soften and release their juices, around 7-10 minutes.
  3. Add the white beans, sun-dried tomatoes, tomato paste, garlic powder, dried oregano, and fresh parsley. Mix everything well and let the stew simmer for about 5 minutes.
  4. Gently fold in the kalamata olives, baby spinach, and lemon juice. Cook until the spinach wilts down, which should take just 3-4 minutes.
  5. If you prefer a thinner stew, stir in some additional vegetable broth. Mix in fresh thyme if desired.
  6. Ladle the steaming stew into bowls and serve it alongside cooked pasta for a heartier meal.
