Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large pot, pour vegetable broth (0.25 cup) on the bottom. Add onion (1 small) and garlic (2 cloves). Cook on medium heat until translucent.

  2. 2

    Add carrots (3) and celery (3 stalks). Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Italian seasoning (1 tbsp) and cumin (1 tsp), along with [salt] and [black pepper] to taste. Stir to coat the vegetables.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining vegetable broth (3.75 cups), diced tomatoes (1 can) and red lentils (1 cup).

  5. 5

    Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to medium-low heat. Cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  6. 6

    When ready to serve, add fresh spinach (1 bag) and stir to combine. It will look like a lot, so add one handful at a time until it wilts and combines with the soup. Serve topped with fresh lemon and fresh chopped parsley (optional).
