It’s a great day to make soup. Here’s a tasty recipe that’s easy and full of delicious minerals!

Yellow Lentil Soup

Boil lentils in 3x the water. Turn off stove and let sit 2 hrs. Drain and rinse.

Make broth by simmering veggies of choice with water, kombu (dried seaweed), dried mushrooms, garlic, onions, bayleaf, dried herbs such as thyme.

Cook the lentils with the broth.

Add sweet potato chunks last half hour of cooking.

When done add salt, pepper and little curry powder and WeOlive olive oil. Cook for another 10 mins.

Serve with warm crusty rye bread and butter and an IPA (my current fav is Lagunitas Hop Stoopid). Join us on a beer and food walking tour and taste some great local IPAs.
