Garlic Lentil Soup
Category: Soups & Stews
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of red lentils, rinsed and drained
- 2 onions, finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 carrot, peeled and finely sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 bay leaves
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 7 cups vegetable stock
- Salt and black pepper
Instructions: Place all ingredients except the salt and pepper into a large soup pan. Bring to a boil and then lower heat and simmer for approximately 1 hour. Stir occasionally to prevent lentils from sticking to pan. If soup thickens and lentils are still not tender, add a little extra vegetable stock. Remove the bay leaves and add salt and pepper to taste. Serve the soup into warm bowls and serve with a whole wheat or seed roll.
