LENTIL, PASTA & VEGETABLE SOUP
This does take a bit of effort but it is worth it. I use my food processor to chop the veggies and always double or triple this recipe because everyone wants seconds and thirds!

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large saucepan and gently fry the prepared onion, garlic, carrot and celery, stirring gently, for 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
- Add the lentils, stock and boiling water. Season with salt and pepper to taste, stir and bring back to the boil.
- Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes until the lentils are completely tender.
- Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring another saucepan of water to the boil and cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packet. Drain well and set aside.
- Place the soup in a blender and process until smooth. Return to a saucepan and add the pasta.
- Bring back to a simmer and heat for 2-3 minutes until piping hot. Remove from the heat and stir in the yogurt. Season if necessary.
- Serve sprinkled with chopped parsley. We also add a sprinkle of brewers yeast.
- Tip: Avoid boiling the soup once the yogurt has been added. Otherwise, it will separate and become watery, spoiling the appearance of the soup.
