Creamy Coconut Red Lentil Soup

Fall is definitely in the air and I’m cozying up with a cup of this healthy and nourishing Red Lentil Soup!

Ingredients:

  •  4 cups dry red lentils
  •  2 celery stalks (roughly 1.5 cups chopped)
  •  1-2 large carrots (roughtly 1.5 cups diced)
  •  1 large yellow onion (finely chopped)
  •  4 minced garlic cloves
  •  1/3 cup avocado oil
  •  2 tsp himalayan pink salt (more or less to taste)
  •  1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 can 398ml coconut milk
  • 946 ml Vegetable Broth
  • 1 L of water (or more depending on desired consistency)

Directions:

  1. Rinse your lentils well under warm running water and set aside. Wash and prep all vegetables.
  2. Heat 2 tbsp avocado oil in a large pot adding the onion and garlic. Saute until caramelized and tender. Add in the carrots and celery, the remaining avocado oil and continue to saute until soft.
  3. Once soft, add in the red lentils, oregano, the vegetable broth, water and coconut milk. Stir well. Bring to a boil, reduce to low and let simmer for 30 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and puree the soup with a hand held blender. (Make sure you don’t burn yourself!) Puree well for that velvety smooth consistency.

Enjoy!
