Lentil & Carrot Soup

"This very simple recipe comes out looking disgusting, but don't be fooled. It's deLISH!!! Also filling and VERY healthy. I have never had anyone try it who didn't love it. I personally omit the seasonings, since the existing flavors blend so wonderfully on their own and the chicken broth usually contains plenty of salt."

directions

  • Heat oil in heavy pan, add onions, carrots, and celery. Cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add lentils and broth; bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat. Stir occasionally for about 45 minutes.
  • Transfer 2-3 cups soup to blender and process (starting on LOW) until smooth. Be VERY careful with this step, because the soup is very hot & can volcano out of the blender causing burns and making a huge mess. I always put the blender in the sink, wear oven mitts, and always always ALWAYS start the blender on the lowest setting possible.
  • Return blended soup to pot, stir, and season with salt & pepper to taste.
