One of my favorite soups. Freezes really well.
1 Tblsp Olive Oil
1 garlice clove chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded & chopped
1 can diced tomatoes
4 cups vegetable broth
1 lb. sweet potato, peeled & chopped
1 carrot, peeled & chopped
1 cup lentils
salt & pepper
Heat oil in a large dutch oven. Add the garlic and onion and cook over medium heat, stirring, for 3 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the bell pepper & the tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring. Pour in the broth, then add sweet potatoes, carrots & lentils. Season with salt & pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, until all the vegetables are tender & cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
Transfer 1/2 the soup into a food processor and blend until smooth. Return to the pan with the rest of the soup and cook for 10 minutes.
