- In a large pot, saute the onion and garlic.
- Add tomatoes and carrots.
- Add lentils and herbs. (Thyme works great alone too). Make sure you have small green lentils: sometimes the other types can get mealy.
- Add vegetable broth about 1 inch above lentils.
- Bring to a boil, then let simmer, stirring once in a while.
- When the lentils are soft and soup thick, you are done.
- Add salt/pepper or more herbs to taste.
- A splash of vinegar in your bowl on top of the soup is delicious! (French recipe suggested it, and it was great).
