Serves 2-3
3 large carrots
2 T olive oil
About 1/2 t each corriander, tumeric (if tolerated), cumin (if tolerated) and ceylon cinnamon (if tolerated)
4 cups veggie broth (ic friendly)
1/3 cup red lentils
1/4 cup cooking onion (roughly- if tolerated)
2 cloves garlic
1 grated apple (ic friendly)
1 small head of broccoli
Heat up olive oil on low heat in the bottom of a pot. Chop and add onion (if using), saute a few minutes until translucent. Add garlic and saute about 1 minute.
Add spices, chopped carrots and broccoli, grated apple and 2 cups veggie broth. Bring to a boil and then lower heat. Simmer about 5 minutes.
Puree the contents of the pot in a blender, and then set aside.
Bring the rest of the veggie broth to a boil. Rinse and add lentils. Simmer about 15 minutes or until lentils are cooked, stirring occasionally.
Add the pureed mix back into the pot and simmer a few minutes longer. Serve and enjoy!
