Curried Lentil soup with a slice of sweet potato raisin bread.
Ingredients
5 cups of lentils (soaked and drained if using dried like I did)
1 medium summer squash
2 celery stalks
1/2 yellow pepper
2 handfuls raw spinach
1/2 cube chicken boullion
2 cloves garlic
water
Spices
3 tsp curry powder
2 tsp dried minced onion
1 tsp ground cloves
2 bay leaves
2 squirts sriracha (optional)
fresh cracked pepper
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp allspice
1 dried hot pepper (optional)
dash salt
Directions:
Fill soup pot with lentils
Throw in your spinach along with you cut summer squash, celery and seasonings.
Fill pot with water enough to almost cover items in pot.
Stir
Place on fire and bring to a boil.
Lower fire and simmer for 20 mins or until skin of lentils becomes broken.
Eat (YUMMY!).
This is a great filling soup by itself. Or it can be spooned over a 1/2 cup of brown rice. and because I like it spice I always top off with more sriracha.
