Yield Makes 2 servings (can be doubled)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups diced smoked ham
2 teaspoons dried savory
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
3 cups (or more) canned low-salt chicken broth
1 cup brown lentils, rinsed
1 14 1/2-ounce can diced tomatoes with roasted garlic

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add ham, savory and mustard and stir until ham begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Add 3 cups broth and lentils and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover and simmer until lentils are tender, about 20 minutes. Add tomatoes with juices; simmer uncovered 2 minutes. Add more broth by 1/4 cupfuls to thin soup, if desired.
