Lentil Soup

Serves: 4

Print this Recipe

Vary your lentils. Look for either brown or green lentils to use for this robust soup. Look forward to leftovers, too! This soup tastes even better the second day.


   2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
   2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
   1 medium onion, finely chopped
   1/2 cup diced prosciutto or fully cooked Virginia ham (4 ounces)
   1/4 cup diced Genoa salami (2 ounces)
   1 bay leaf
   4 cups water
   2 cups chicken broth
   1 1/2 cups dried lentils (8 ounces), sorted and rinsed
   1/2 teaspoon pepper


1. Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook garlic and onion in oil 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until onion is tender. Stir in prosciutto and salami. Cook over medium heat 10 minutes, stirring frequently.

2. Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender. Remove bay leaf.
