Ingredients
  

  • 1 onion
  • 2 yellow squash
  • 2 zucchini
  • 1 bag frozen string beans
  • 1 cup lentils
  • 1 can peeled crushed tomatoes
  • 2 carrots
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Coat a big soup pot with olive oil, and set to high heat. Then throw in some chopped onion and season with salt and pepper. Saute for a few minutes.
  • Add 2 chopped carrots and saute another few minutes.
  • Next, add 6 cups of vegetable broth and cook until the carrots soften.
  • Stir in 2 chopped yellow squash and 2 chopped zucchini. I quarter them so they're bite-sized!
  • Toss in the can of peeled crushed tomatoes and the bag of frozen cut string beans.
  • While the veggies soften in the vegetable broth, make 1 cup of lentils (follow instructions on bag).
  • When the lentils are finished, add them to the soup. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Simmer for about 30 minutes so all of the veggies have a chance to soften and the flavors mix together.
