The ingredients for Vegetarian Lentil And Vegetable Soup are:

1 T. EVOO
3 med. carrots, chopped
3 med. celery stalks, chopped
1 yellow onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb. mushrooms, sliced
1 20oz can crushed tomatoes
8 cps vegetable stock
2 cps uncooked lentils
2 tsp. cumin*
1 tsp. granulated garlic*
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
2 tsp. worcestershire sauce*
2 tsp. (or to taste) salt*
1 tsp. pepper*
several dashes hot sauce*

Here is how you make Vegetarian Lentil And Vegetable Soup:

Saute carrots, celery & onion in EVOO while you mince garlic and slice mushrooms, about 5 min.Add garlic and stir, then add mushrooms. Let cook 2-3 min.Add lentils and stock and then bring to a boil.Turn heat to low and simmer for about 20 min.Add spices and tomatoes, and continue to cook for another 30 min.The soup should be about ready, but I like to check the seasoning and add about 1/2 -1 tsp. salt. Also, check the consistency. Usually, I like to add more water (about 2 cups) to thin the soup, and then re-season. Simmer another 10 min. for flavors to blend.For a less "tomato" flavor, you can use a few fresh tomatoes or some tomato paste. It still has depth, but the other veggies really shine through!***Freezes very well.Makes about 12 - 12oz. servings with water added.* I never measure anything, so these quantities are my best guess. Taste as you go and to your liking. Also, the more mushrooms you add, the "meatier" the soup. Number of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user R2WHITE.
