The days are becoming shorter, it’s getting colder outside.. Yep, winter is definitely on it’s way.
As much as I love summer and the feeling of the sun touching my skin, there’s something about winter time that I absolutely adore. Cuddling up with your blanket, holding a hot coco in front of the fireplace watching some of your favorite movies over and over again.
If there’s one dish I love to have during the colder days, it has to be a hot bowl of soup. You can go so many different ways with soup and it’s also the perfect dish to make to clean out your fridge when you have some veggies left-overs from the past couple of days and you aren’t sure what to use them for.
I present you… a recipe to one of my all time favorite soups; a lentil soup.
Feel free to use whatever veggies you have left in your fridge before they turn bad - we don’t want to waste any food.
Let’s get cooking!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
2 cups copped brocolli
1 carrot
1/2 zucchini
2 cups kale
1 cup of brown lentils
1 tsp garlic granules
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp paprika powder
1 tbsp curry powder
Pepper
Pink himalayan Salt
1 cube of vegan vegetable stock
Olive oil
WHAT YOU’LL HAVE TO DO:
Wash and cut up all your vegetables
Heat up some olive oil in a stew pan on medium-high fire
Add all your vegetables to the stew pain
Add all the spices to your vegetables (I prefer adding in the spices before we add the water so the vegetables can absorb all the flavors)
Let it cook for a few minutes on medium high fire
Rinse your lentils well and add it to the vegetables and give it a good stir
Add water, until everything is well covered
Add 1 cube of vegan vegetable stock
Cover the pan and let it sidder for +/- 30 minutes or until the lentils and vegetables are well-cooked.
