Hi Jeannie. I found this one, and though I have not yet tried it myself, it

sounds very wonderful from the ingredient list; definately something I would

like at any rate. I am not sure about the palates of the meat-eating bunch, but

maybe they would try it. It says it only serves 4, but I imagine you could

double or triple it easy enough. I hope this helps. I'll keep my eye out for

more

yummy sounding lentil recipes that are also easy to prepare.

 

Lentil and Pasta Soup

 

1 Tbs olive oil

2 celery ribs, diced

1 carrot, diced

1 greenpepper, diced

1/2 cup chopped scallions

2 garlic cloves, minced

7 cups low-sodium vegetable stock

2 cups canned low-sodium tomatoes with juice

1 cup red lentils, rinsed and drained

4 oz spaghetti, broken into 2 inch pieces

1 (10oz) box frozen chopped spinach, thawed

2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese

 

Makes 4 servings

 

In a three quart saucepan over medium heat, warm oil. Add celery, carrots,

scallions, and garlic; cook, stirring for 4-5 minutes or until tender. Add the

stock and tomatoes (with their liquid); bring to a boil.

 

Reduce heat to low and stir in lentils; simmer, partially covered, for 20-25

minutes.

 

Add the spaghetti and spinach; simmer for 10-12 minutes. Sprinkle with the

Parmesan cheese.
