Prep Time: 10 Cook Time: 20 Total Time: 30
INGREDIENTS:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 large carrot, diced
Heaping 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
4 cups low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/3 cup red lentils
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (14.5-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup cooked vegetables, such as frozen peas or chopped green beans
DIRECTIONS:
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, carrots, smoked paprika and cumin; cook, stirring frequently so the garlic doesn't brown, about 2 minutes more.
Add the broth, diced tomatoes, red lentils, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to a simmer; cook for ten minutes. Add the chickpeas, cover the pot and cook 10 minutes more.
Fish out the bay leaves, then transfer 2 cups of the soup to a blender and purée until smooth (be sure to remove the center knob on the blender and cover with a dishtowel to avoid splatters). Add the puréed soup back to the pot and stir. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary; if you want the soup to be thicker, purée a bit more soup. Add the cooked vegetables and simmer until the soup is hot and the vegetables are warmed through. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve.
Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The soup can be frozen for up to 3 months. Defrost the soup in the refrigerator for 12 hours and then reheat it on the stovetop over medium heat until hot. through

This is a hearty soup. This warming, satisfying lentil and vegetable soup comes together in just 30 minutes. The soup comes together easily, start to finish, yet tastes like you spent all day in the kitchen, and it’s good for you, too. For the cooked vegetables, feel free to use any quick-cooking, frozen, or leftover vegetables you have on hand. The recipe is extremely flexible and very hearty! You do need an immersion blender or to puree 2 cups of the soup in a regular blender or food processor.
