RED LENTIL SOUP WITH LEMON-MINT YOGURT
This soup is easy to get excited about as it is delicious, satisfying, comforting, and beautiful--but it's also, thanks to the lentils, kinda meaty. When you're eating this, it really doesn't seem like a vegetable-based soup. Garnish with thinly sliced mint.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, salt, and tomato paste. Cook, stirring often, until the onion softens and the tomato paste turns a deep brick red or brown color, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add garlic, cumin, and cayenne; cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes. Stir in the broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the lentils, celery, and carrots.
- Stir and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils and vegetables are very tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Meanwhile, grind the mint and salt into a paste using a mortar and pestle. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and yogurt, and stir together until combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Taste the soup and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve as-is or use an immersion blender to puree about half of the soup to achieve a creamier texture. Serve hot with spoonfuls of the lemon-mint yogurt.

CHEF JOEY'S RED LENTIL SOUP
I am always looking for something different for my DH and myself to eat during the long chilly days of winter. We both love soup and today I came up with this recipe. It is such a gorgeous red soup. It is so tasty and very hardy, a real stick to your ribs type of meal. This would be great served with some hummus and a nice warm piece of flat bread on the side. :-) If you use soy sour cream and veggie soup broth you can make this vegan.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot. I used my large cast iron dutch oven.
- Add the chopped onion and garlic and saute until soft.
- Stir in the lentils and cumin and cook for one minute or until you can smell the cumin and the lentils are well coated.
- Stir in the agave (or honey), bay leaves and 7 cups of soup broth and being to a boil.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover the soup and reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 20 minutes or until the lentils are soft and falling apart and soup has thickened up.
- Then add the canned tomatoes and continue to cook for another 15 minutes. The tomatoes have an inhibiting affect on the lentils softening.
- You can add a little more soup broth to thin the soup if it is too thick.
- When done remove bay leaves, stir in the wine vinegar, and serve with dollops of sour cream or yogurt.
- Bon Appetit!
