Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lentils

    Rinse 1 cup of lentils under cold water and sort through to remove any debris. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Dice 1 medium onion, 1 medium carrot, and 1 stalk of celery. Mince 3 cloves of garlic.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrot, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the onion is translucent.

  2. 4

    Add Lentils and Spices

    Stir in the rinsed lentils, 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook for another minute to toast the spices.

  3. 5

    Add Broth and Tomatoes

    Pour in 4 cups of vegetable broth and 1 can (14 oz) of diced tomatoes, including their juices. Add 1 bay leaf. Stir to combine.

  4. 6

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.

  5. 7

    Add Spinach

    In the last 5 minutes of cooking, stir in 2 cups of fresh spinach until wilted.

  6. 8

    Final Seasoning

    Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or spices as needed. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
