Tuscan Kale Lentil Soup! (Vegan!)

Tuscan Kale Lentil Soup (Vegan!) 

I'm going to be honest, there are very few ways we LIKE to eat lentils. But I keep trying, because its another way to spice up protein when you already cut out so much. This recipe is finally a keeper!!!!

You Will Need:

1/2 head of kale

6 cups vegetable broth

1 medium sweet potato (peeled and diced) 

1 can 14oz diced tomatoes

1/2 yellow onion (chopped) 

1 stalk celery (chopped) 

1 tsp. red wine vinegar

1 tsp. minced garlic

3/4 cup uncooked lentils

1 tsp. olive oil

dash of salt

dash of pepper

dash of rosemary 

Directions:

1.  Add olive oil to a medium/large pot over medium heat and add onion, celery and minced garlic. 

Cook for about 3 minutes

2. Stir in sweet potato and lentils

3. Stir in vegetable broth and diced tomatoes immediately after

4. Stir in spices, bring everything to a boil

5. Lower heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes (you really just want to make sure sweet potatoes are soft and lentils are cooked!) 

6. Add in kale and red wine vinegar and cook for an additional 5 minutes

6. Serve or put in air tight container!
