SMOKED SAUSAGE AND LENTIL SOUP
I was looking for a hearty soup for a cold, rainy weekend. When I couldn't find exactly what I wanted, I made this soup using ingredients that appealed to me from a combination of recipes. What resulted was a thick, stick-to-your ribs soup that everyone enjoyed! This one will go into "our favorites" section of my cookbook!

Steps:
- Wash and sort through lentils, removing any stones, etc.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the onions, celery, carrots and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until onions have begun to wilt, about 10 minutes.
- Add remaining ingredients and heat until boiling, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until lentils are tender, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- Remove bay leaves, let "rest" for about 15 minutes to blend flavors and serve.
- This may be thinned with a little more broth or water if it becomes too thick.
