This easy, subtly seasoned stew is an adaptation of a Moroccan recipe by Kitty Morse, from her lovely book "The Vegetarian Table: North Africa." Whether you choose to use sweet potatoes or winter squash, you'll be using vegetables with a great deal of vitamin A.

Steps:
- Combine the lentils, water or stock, onion, garlic cloves and bay leaf in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil. Rub the saffron between your fingers and add to the pot, along with the turmeric and the cilantro. Reduce the heat, add salt to taste, cover and simmer 30 minutes.
- Remove the onion and garlic cloves from the pot, and add the remaining ingredients except the parsley. Bring back to a simmer, cover and simmer 30 minutes or until the lentils and vegetables are tender. Discard the cilantro bundle, taste and adjust seasonings. Just before serving, stir in the parsley.
