Wonderful, filling soup. Ingredients:
1 (14 ounce) can crushed tomatoes |
5 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 lb dried lentils |
1 onion, chopped |
2 carrots, chopped |
2 celery ribs, chopped |
4 stalks swiss chard, thoroughly washed, trimmed and cut into 1 ' strips |
1 tablespoon salt |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook the tomatoes in 1T oil for 15 minutes and set aside. Rinse lentils under cold running water. Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a 6-quart pot, and add all ingredients, including pre-cooked tomatoes, except 2T oil. Bring back to a boil, then lower heat and simmer covered 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender. Remove from heat and add remaining 2T oil.
