10-Minute Vegan Lentil Soup

1.

Welcome to the world of vegan cooking! Today, we're making a delicious 10-minute lentil soup that will satisfy your taste buds and nourish your body. Let's get started!

2.

First, gather your ingredients: 1 cup of red lentils, 1 onion, 2 cloves of garlic, 1 carrot, 1 celery stalk, 1 can of diced tomatoes, 4 cups of vegetable broth, and your favorite spices.

3.

In a large pot, sauté the chopped onion and garlic until fragrant. Then add in the diced carrot and celery and cook for a few minutes until they start to soften.

4.

Next, add in the red lentils and stir to combine with the vegetables. Then pour in the can of diced tomatoes and vegetable broth. Bring the soup to a boil.

5.

Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for 10 minutes. This will allow the lentils to cook and the flavors to meld together.

6.

While the soup is simmering, feel free to add in your favorite spices. We recommend a pinch of cumin, paprika, and chili powder for a little kick. Don't forget to season with salt and pepper to taste.

7.

After 10 minutes, your soup should be ready! Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can transfer the soup to a regular blender in batches.

8.

Now it's time to serve and enjoy your 10-minute vegan lentil soup! Top it off with some fresh herbs, a squeeze of lemon, or a dollop of vegan sour cream for extra flavor.

This soup is not only delicious, but it's also packed with nutrients. Lentils are a great source of plant-based protein and fiber, making this soup a filling and healthy meal.
