Recipe type: Soup
Cuisine: Jewish
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • First, put a full tea kettle of water on to boil.
  • 1 med./large onion
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 2 c. red lentils
  • 1 large can crushed tomatoes
  • ½ jar garlic chipotle salsa (med. hot)
Instructions
  1. First, put a full tea kettle of water on to boil
  2. Saute onion and garlic in the soup pot until soft using approx. 1 T olive oil and 1 t dried basil
  3. Add in 2 c. red lentils, 1 large can crushed tomatoes
  4. I use the boiling water to rinse the tomato can (and fill it about 2-3 times)
  5. Simmer, covered at least 45 min.
  6. Add in ½ c. garlic chipotle salsa (med. hot)
  7. This recipe is so flexible, I've made it with tequila and lime to garnish, or mango salsa, or served over cornbread, or with other veggies sauteed at the beginning.
