Lentil Soup

So this is the easiest, yummiest lentil soup I have ever made.  OK so it may be the first lentil soup I have ever made.  I know that lentils are very good for you, but I was scared. Rudy and I once ate lentils at an Ethiopian restaurant and they were NOT good.   What if they tasted yucky when I cooked them?  Well this recipe has turned me into a lentil lover and I will be looking for other applications in the lentil world.

Lentil Soup

1 onion chopped
2 carrots chopped
2 stalks celery chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 can tomatoes
1 cup lentils
1 quart chicken stock
1 polish sausage chopped

Saute the onions, carrots, and celery until soft then add garlic.  Add tomatoes, chicken stock, lentils and sausage.  Cook for 30-45 minutes over med-low heat.

I made this in the morning and then reheated it for dinner.  It only gets better with time.
