Vegetable lentil soup with a side of guitar

I love lentils and therefore I'm a big fan of lentil soup. This recipe was super easy and yummy.

Lentil soup
3/4 c. dried lentils
4 organic single celery stocks, chopped
3/4 lb. organic carrots, chopped
1 white onion, diced
6 cloves garlic, diced
2 T. olive oil
1tsp. thyme
3 c. organic veggie broth

Make sure to soak the lentils in water over night so you won't have to cook the soup as long.



In a medium pot, sauté the garlic in olive oil for about 1 minute, then add the onions, celery, and carrots. Sauté for 5 minutes. 



Then add lentils, thyme, and broth. Bring to a boil.


Reduce heat to medium for 15-20 minutes, uncovered. 

This soup was surprisingly extremely flavorful and much better than most lentil soups I have had.


Our one-year old helped daddy sing and play the guitar while mommy made dinner :)
