2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 large onion, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 lb all-natural turkey sausage
2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped (or 1 can, 15 oz chopped

Wash and pick over the lentils (to make sure there are no stones) and bring to a boil in the broth or water in a large soup pot. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
