Ingredients:

Serving

3 cups lentils , picked over and rinsed (any color)
28 oz can crushed tomatoes
16 oz tomato sauce
1 -2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup pesto sauce
10 oz frozen spinach ( defrosted and squeezed out)
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup sliced carrot
1/2 cup diced onion
1 cup diced celery
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1 tbsp dried italian spices
salt and pepper
hot cooked pasta ( little shells or elbows)

Directions:

Just put everything into a 6-8 qt stockpot, add water to about two inches from the rim and simmer. I ended up simmering mine for about 1 hour. I cooked some small shells for those who wanted a little heartier soup. I served some extra pesto sauce and some grated Parmesan for those who wanted it.
Any type of tomatoes will do; diced, crushed, sauce, pizza sauce, marinara in a pinch. Just use what you've got!
