A great filling soup/stew full of veggies and lentils. I serve it with cilantro, green onions, sour cream and cheese for toppings. Note - The recipe can easily be doubled.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 red pepper, chopped
1 large carrot, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
200 g red lentils
4 cups chicken or 4 cups vegetable stock
1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Heat oil over medium high heat. Saute vegetables until soft, about 8 minutes.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Turn down to a med-low simmer and cook for about 40 minutes or until lentils are soft.
3. * I like to stir in about 1/2 tsp chipotle hot sauce when the soup is done.
