Lentil Soup
Fresh garlic - chopped fine - to taste
Onion - chopped small - to taste
2 Tbsp. Olive oil
Carrots - peeled and chopped small - to taste - optional
Salt and ground black pepper
1 lb. Bag lentils
2 quarts water (chicken, vegetable or beef stock may be used or a combination of all 4. I just use water and beef stock)
Heat olive oil in pot. Add onion and garlic; cook on low heat till soft but not brown. Add remaining ingredients and bring to boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook at a low simmer until the lentils are tender, approximately 35 to 40 minutes. Serve over rice for a complete protein meal.
