Mmmmmm soup

Our lentil salad was such a success that we were feeling pretty confident about spiced lentil soup. I took the lead so Robin could devote his full attention to the apple crumble (stay tuned!).



This recipe is SO easy; I totes drew the long straw tonight. All you have to do is saute some onion and garlic, mix in tomato puree and yummy spices (cumin, coriander, garam masala, ginger, and turmeric)...



...add the red lentils and broth, and simmer for half an hour until it gets soupy (you can throw it into the blender for a few seconds too, but I didn't find it made much difference).



Top with yogurt and cilantro and enjoy!



The soup was hearty and tasty enough on its own, but the yogurt brought it to a whole new level and kept us going back for more. Lentils are a hit in this house!

Hope you saved room for dessert!
