- Stir in water, lentils, and tomato sauce and increase heat to high. Cover and bring to a boil; this is necessary to aid in digestion.
- Slowly add potatoes, kidney beans, canned tomatoes, and peanut butter. Cover and boil for 3 minutes longer. Reduce heat to the lowest setting. Cover and cook until all vegetables are tender and flavors have melded, about 1 hour.
