INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup dry Red Lentils (67g)
1/2 cup canned Chickpeas, drained (82g)
3 oz Firm Tofu (85g)
1 medium Carrot (61g)
1 stalk Celery (40g)
1 small Onion (70g)
1 cup Diced Tomatoes (240g)
2 cups Vegetable Broth
1 cup Spinach (30g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Ground Turmeric
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic, diced onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the ground cumin, turmeric, and smoked paprika, cooking for another minute to toast the spices.
Add the red lentils, chopped chickpeas, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Dice the firm tofu into small cubes and add it to the soup. Allow the soup to simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
Stir in the fresh spinach and simmer for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve. Enjoy your hearty, spiced red lentil and vegetable soup!
