Description
What if dinner could feel like a hug in a bowl? This Mushroom and Lentil Soup is packed with hearty veggies and rich flavors, making it the perfect comfort food.
Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- About 12 mushrooms (go wild with your favorite kind)
- 3 celery stalks
- 2 Roma tomatoes
- 1 cup broccoli
- 1/2 head of cauliflower
- 1/2 cup lentils (split red lentils work great)
- 8 cups of water + 2 stock cubes or 8 cups veggie stock
- 2 big handfuls of fresh baby spinach
Instructions
- Start by dicing up your onion and garlic.
- Toss them into a pot with a splash of oil or butter and let them cook on medium heat until they’re golden and fragrant.
- Next up: mushrooms and celery. Chop, toss them in, and stir while they soften.
- Add your diced tomatoes and cook just long enough for them to get nice and juicy.
- Now for the fun stuff, broccoli and cauliflower!
- Cut them into bite-sized chunks, then add them to the pot along with the lentils and your stock.
- Bring everything to a boil, then turn the heat down low and let it simmer for about 30 minutes. It’ll smell amazing.
- Once it’s off the heat, stir in those fresh spinach leaves.
- Give it a couple of minutes to wilt slightly, and you’re done.
- Serve it up while the spinach is still a little snappy, sprinkle on some freshly cracked black pepper, and maybe add a thick slice of fluffy whole-wheat bread for dipping.
- This soup feels like a little celebration of veggies in every bite, warm, comforting, and satisfying. If you’re not already reaching for your soup pot, what are you even waiting for?
