Lentil Sweet Potato Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 lb lentils
  • 1 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup diced onion (Vidalia if available)
  • 3-4 stalks celery - sliced
  • 32 oz vegetable broth
  • 3 - 4 cups water
  • (optional - other soup vegetables)
  • 1 tbs+ oil (I use Canola)
  • organic raw vegan sugar (to taste - 1-3 tbs.)
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • basil to taste

Directions

Sauté onions in oil until soft. Add all other ingredients
and bring to a boil. Simmer until tender (about an
hour). This soup tastes best if left to sit on the stove a
couple of hours before serving.

The vegetables tend to disappear in this soup so if you
prefer them more firm, add them 1/2 hour after the
lentils.
