LENTIL VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cover the lentils with boiling water and allow to sit for 15 minutes. Drain.
• In a large stockpot on medium heat, saute the onions, leeks, and garlic with the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme, and cumin for 20 minutes, until the vegetables are translucent and very tender. Add the celery and carrots and saute for 10 more minutes. Add the chicken stock, tomato paste, and lentils. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 1 hour, until the lentils are cooked through. Check the seasonings. Add the red wine and serve hot, drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with grated Parmesan.

LINA'S AWESOME SMOOTH LENTIL AND VEGGIE SOUP!

Steps:

• Rinse Lentils and add them to a big cooking pot. Add all the veggies (do not add the parsley). Add the Chicken broth. Cook on medium high for approximately 30 to 40 minutes or until the veggies are very tender. Once the veggies are very tender, take the pot off the stove and set on a heat proof area. Mix the soup with a hand blender until very smooth (You can use a blender but it's just easier with a hand blender). Put the smooth soup back on the stove on a low setting and add the butter and mix until the butter has melted in with the soup. Add your cumin, garlic and salt. Mix into the soup. Finely, add your chopped parsley and mix.
• Serve hot. So good.
