INGREDIENTS
1 cup red lentils (200g)
3/4 cup white beans (130g)
1 medium carrot
1 stalk celery
1 small onion
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup fresh spinach
1 cup vegetable broth
1/2 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cool water and set aside.
In a large pot, warm the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the diced carrot and celery to the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Stir in the red lentils and diced tomatoes, coating them in the aromatic vegetable mixture.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the soup to a gentle simmer.
Add the white beans and allow the soup to simmer for about 25-30 minutes, until the lentils are tender and the flavors meld together.
In the last 5 minutes of simmering, stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve hot and enjoy your hearty, nourishing soup.
