Carrot and Lentil Soup Recipe

Red lentils are so quick and easy to cook. They are an excellent source of soluble fiber that provides a slow-burning carbohydrate source to feed you steady energy. [Sounds like a really great, energizing combination!] Makes 4 servings of this toasted spice carrot and lentil soup.

Lentil Soup Ingredients

2 teaspoons cumin seeds
⅛ teaspoon chili flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large carrots, finely chopped
5 ounces red lentils
32 ounces vegetable broth
½ cup coconut milk
4 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt

Lentil Soup Directions

Heat a medium pot and cook the cumin seeds and chili flakes in the dry pot for 2 minutes, until fragrant and a shade darker.
Set aside one-quarter of the seeds. Add the oil, carrots, lentils, broth, and coconut milk to the pan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 20 minutes until the lentils are soft.
Blend with an immersion blender or in a food processor. Top each portion with 1 tablespoon of yogurt and sprinkle with the toasted spices.
