We recently went through a detox to cleanse our body and kick start more of a healthy approach to our diet. This delicious vegetarian lentil soup was our first meal after our cleanse. I have to say this soup exceeded our expectations. Carrots sauteed with chopped white onion bring great flavors. Curry and thyme spices bring taste to a new level. From now on this soup will often be served in our home 🙂

Although this lentil soup calls for quite a few ingredients, it is relatively easy to make. It boils down to 3 core vegetables, onion, carrots, and lentils.

Look at these pretty simple ingredients below that make this delicious vegetarian lentil soup.

So here we go! 🙂 Dice an onion peel the carrots and cut into strips.

A large pot will be needed to start cooking onions and carrots. I used about 6 quarts pot.

Next step is to add water, culinary vegetable stock, tomatoes and bring your soup to a boil and set it to medium. Continue cooking for about 25 more minutes.

Add your collard greens ( you can replace collard greens with kale if you prefer)and, season with salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes.

Last but not least squeeze the lemon to season with fresh lemon juice and serve while the soup is hot!

This vegetable lentil soup can be made with a variety of different meats or vegetables.

Try chicken, beef, ham hock, bacon, ham bone, sausage or spinach, kale. Honestly it will taste fantastic with any vegetable or meat.
