Easy dinner/lunch idea: Vegetable soup

Hello everyone, I would like to thank you for reading my posts and following my blog. Please feel free to comment and share with your friends and family.

Since it is a little cold, I have been loving homemade vegetable soups. Some turn out yummy and some not so great ;)

Here is the recipe for a yummy one. Please feel to add, remove or replace any ingredient you don't like.

Let's get started !

Ingredients:

Ingredients

2-3 ribs  of celery diced ( I just looked it up lol A stalk is the whole bunch you buy at the store, a rib is the individual one ;)
2 tomatoes diced
2-3 carrots diced ( you can definitely use more)
one small box of oyster mushrooms diced
1/4 of an onion or 1/2 whatever you like finely diced
3-5 small yellow potatoes diced in cubes
1/4 cup of green lentils






Herbs de Provence
All Spice ground
Thyme
Mustard Seeds
Sage 
Dried parsley
Celtic Sea Salt 
Please note I didn't write measurements for the spices because it all depends on your taste. Spices are herbs are very good for digestion and taste so play around with them and see what you like or don't like.

 Method:
Dice all the veggies
Heat a little bit of olive oil in the pot
Then add the veggies ( I start with the onions , then add the rest. The olive oil will be hot, and the onions are cooling as they release their water). Sautee the veggies for 5-10 minutes
Add the spices and salt, sautee for few more minutes
Then add the water or broth whatever you prefer.  I added approximately three cups of water ( you can always adjust the water level as the veggies are cooking) 
Then add the lentils
Bring to boil on medium heat
Then simmer and cover until all veggies are cooked and water is reduced . It will take about 45 minutes. 
After 30 minutes I would check on it and adjust what needs adjustment! Maybe it needs more salt or more broth or water, it depends on your taste. 

Final Product
