Creamy Red Lentil Soup image

Cleaning out my pantry and found that I had not 1 but 3 bags of red lentils. So what better way to use them than in a soup. Used the crock pot and when it was cooked I used the immersion blender to make it smooth. It was a hit on Friday night when I served it to guest.

Time 10h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb red lentil
6 cups broth (I used vegetable)
2 cups water
4 celery ribs, diced
4 carrots, diced
1 onion, diced
4 -6 garlic cloves
1 (14 ounce) diced tomatoes (low salt)
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon thyme
cumin
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Put all ingredients in crock pot except cumin & cinnamon. Cook for 8-10 hours. Add cumin & cinnamon. Use immersion blender to make the soup smooth. I did this while the soup was in the crock pot so that it wouldn't cool off. You can blend it as smooth or a chunky as you like.
