We had a rainy weekend and our weather has been cold for California's standards.
I made a quick and easy Lentil soup which was warm and comforting. Here are the directions:
.
Chop 1 1/2 cup of celery
Dice 1 onion
Chop 1 cup of carrots
1 cup of frozen or drained canned peas
1 1/2 cup washed and drained Lentils
1 cup Marinara sauce :any flavor
Add 4 1/2 cups of water or 3 1/2 cups of water plus 1 cup chicken or beef stock. I did add more water as the Lentils swelled. I like a soup consistency. Boil until the Lentils are just soft enough to bite: 25 min. to 1/2 hour. Keep checking them. Season well to your own liking. Serve with some grated cheese on top and Enjoy!
