  • 1/2 White Onion chopped
  • 4 Cloves Garlic minced
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil for cooking

The Lentils

  • 1 Cup Red Lentils

The Broth

  • 4 Cups Vegetable Stock
  • 2 Cups Water

The Spices

  • 1/2 Tsp Dried Basil

Instructions
 

  • Start by prepping the vegetables - chop the onion and mince the garlic.
  • Bring a large pot to medium heat with a little extra virgin olive oil. Add in the onions only, and sauté for a few minutes until onions are translucent. Then, add in the garlic and sauté for another minute or so, until garlic is fragrant. Be careful not to let the garlic brown!
  • Once onions and garlic are done sautéing, add in vegetable stock and water and bring to a simmer. Then, add in lentils and spices and simmer until lentils are nice and soft, about 15-20 minutes.
  • When done, ladle the soup into bowls and serve.
  • Enjoy!
