Ingredients:

  • 2 cups organic low sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon organic tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup green lentils
  • 1/2 cups garbanzo beans
  • 1/2 cup green peas
  • 1/2 white onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup organic baby carrots, finely chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • spices (black pepper, garlic powder, cayenne, coriander, cumin)

Direction:

  • Cook the lentils in water until soft while chopping up the onion, celery and carrots. When the lentils are done put them in a bowl and set aside.
  • Put the chopped veggies, tomato paste, coconut oil, garbanzo beans, green peas and the vegetable broth in the pot. Put the lentils back into the pot and add the spices and allow everything to cook for about 5-8 minutes to soften the fresh veggies and get all the different flavors absorbed.
  • Pour into a bowl and slice some cool fresh avocado on top. Light, hearty and healthy and yet jam packed with flavor!
