Tomato, Lentil & Kale Soup

Tomato, lentil and kale soup for dinns! I’m trying to kick this cold and really didn’t feel like cooking tonight but this recipe is SO simple and takes less than half an hour to make!

All you do is sautée 1 chopped onion and 2 minced cloves of garlic in a pan with 1 TBSP of olive oil for about 5 minutes. Then add in 3 stalks of chopped celery. Next add the SPICES….chilli powder, coriander, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. I added some cayenne for extra spice. Then add 1 cup of red lentils, 6 cups of veggie stock and 1 can (28 oz) of low sodium (or sodium free!) diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Finally add half a head of chopped kale to the pot. Cook for 5 more minutes.

Taste and add more spices if you like. Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my BF did!!
