Tomato and Red Lentil soup looks as good as it tastes!
A 'no chopping' chuck it in kind of soup, that impresses my husband - so it must have some mileage! He's not always appreciative of my cooking by the way!
Peel and roughly chop onion, carrots and celery. They are going to be blitzed so don't worry about them.
Saute in oil or low calorie spray for about 5 minutes, stir in lentils, tomato puree, tinned tomatoes and vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, reduce heat and add balsamic vinegar.
Cover and simmer for 35 – 40 mins. Whizz with hand blender and season to taste.
** Options: I spice it up and add 1 tspn cumin and 1 tspn chilli flakes when sauteeing. Add herbs (basil is good) and grated parmesan to top of soup.
