INGREDIENTS
- 1 T. vegetable oil
- 1/2 medium yellow onion, cut into small dice
- 5 medium carrots, peeled and cut into small dice
- 4 ribs celery, cut into small dice
- 2 cups lentils, rinsed
- 7 c. vegetable broth
- 2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- 1 T. Herbes de Provence (I have a hard time finding this seasoning here, so lately I've just been leaving it out of my recipes)
- 1/2 t. salt
- 1/4 t. pepper
- 1/2 c. dry brown rice
- Corn tortillas
DIRECTIONS
- Heat a soup pot over medium heat and add in oil. Once oil is hot, add the onions, half the carrots & half the celery. Sweat the vegetables with a sprinkle of salt until they are soft and the onion is translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in lentils and stir to combine with the oil. Pour in 4 cups broth and add in garlic, Herbes, and salt & pepper.
- Cover with a lid and simmer gently for 20 minutes or until lentils are soft and tender.
- Add remaining 3 cups of broth. Blend in the blender until smooth. Return to pot.
- Add in rice and remaining carrots and celery; simmer until vegetables and rice are tender, about 30 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve with warm corn tortillas.
Makes about 8 servings.
