Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups lentils
10 cups water
1/2 cup brown rice
1 cup diced onion
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp braggs liquid aminos (can use soy sauce instead, but braggs is healthier)
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp salt (this is the amount the cookbook suggests, but i usually use about a 1/2 tbsp so you might want )
1 tbsp chicken-flavored vegetarian seasoning (i use mckay's chicken seasoning which is like chicken bouillon but it's vegetarian and healthier)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dill weed
2 tsp cumin
1 cup frozen chopped spinach
15 oz diced tomatoes
ginger (optional, this is an option my family adds because we like a little ginger flavor)

Directions:

Place all ingredients in kettle except spinach and tomatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 hour or until lentils are tender.
Add spinach and simmer 1 minute. Add tomatoes just before serving.
Leftovers can easily be frozen for another meal. I usually just freeze the soup in a ziplock freezer bag. Take it out the day before and put it in the fridge to thaw. Then reheat over the stove in a pot.
