Vegan Mofo #7/Simple Lentil Soup w/GF Chickpea Flatbread
It's been a week of MoFo'ng already... wow it flew by! I've been trying to view other blogs this month that I've never been on before and it makes me so happy! Everyone is doing fabulous and there is so much yummy vegan food!
??? Lentil soup is one of those that you can add and do so much to. I chose last night just to do a simple lentil soup. Recipe: Olive oil 1 1/4 C. brown or french lentils, uncooked but rinsed 2 med. yellow onions, diced 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped 1 1/2 C. celery, sliced 2 C. carrots, chopped 3 red tomatoes, chopped with juices 1/3 C. white wine 6 C. un-chicken broth or vegetable broth 1/4 tsp thyme red pepper flakes, optional *s & p to taste balsamic or chili oil, drizzled to serve (optional) 1) In a large stockpot heat up 1-2 Tbsp. Olive oil. 2)Add in onion, garlic, carrots and celery cook until soft. 3)Add in red tomatoes, stir and let cook until they are quite soft. 4)Mix in lentils, white wine and thyme and cook for about 2min. 5)Pour in broth, stir and bring to a boil. 6)Once the mixture is boiling, cover with lid and bring to a simmer for about 40-45min. Cook until lentils are soft. 7)Once lentils are soft, use an immersion blender to blend some of it or take a cup or so and put into blender. Blend until pureed and add back into mixture. Stir thouroughly and add red pepper flakes if you wish and continue to cook for 10min. more. Depending on how salty your broth is you may not need any salt. 8)Ladle into bowls. You can drizzle balsamic or a chili olive oil on top if you wish. Yesterday on the Melomeals $3.33 a day blog I saw these delicious flatbreads Melody made with chickpea flour. These are totally gluten free which is great, especially for Keaton. The chickpea crepe recipe I usually use also contains white flour so I was very happy to make these ones. So last night I whipped some up and served them with our lentil soup! Keaton loved these, alot. You must check them out try them for yourselves. I also added some fresh rosemary to half the batter, yummy too. related searches : Vegan
