LENTIL SOUP WITH TOMATO AND TUSCAN KALE
This warming soup is chock-full of fiber and vegetable goodness. "It's made of lentils and dark-green leafy vegetables, and that's a great thing for your body," says New York City chef Marco Canora, from whose cookbook A Good Food Day this recipe is taken. "To have health and wellness," he says, "the best thing you can do is cook for yourself, because you control the fats and salts and you are cooking with whole foods."

Steps:
- For the lentils: Remove the outer layers from the head of garlic and cut off about 1/4 inch of the stem end to expose the cloves. Add the lentils to a large pot and cover them by 2 inches with water. Add the onion, carrots, celery, bay leaf, the head of garlic and a couple of pinches of salt. Bring the lentils to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the lentils are creamy and tender, about 40 minutes.
- Remove and discard the onion, carrots, celery, bay leaf and garlic. Using an immersion blender, puree about one-third of the lentils and return them to the pot. (Or scoop one-third of the lentils into a standard blender and puree, then add back to the pot.)
- For the soffrito: In a food processor, combine the red onion, carrots, celery, rosemary and thyme and pulse until the vegetables are minced. Add the mixture to a separate large soup pot along with the olive oil. Turn the heat to high and fry the vegetables, stirring occasionally, until they soften and color slightly, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomato paste, canned tomatoes with their juice, and a couple pinches of salt to the soffrito and stir. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 10 minutes. Add the kale and another pinch of salt, stirring to coat the leaves. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes, until the kale is soft.
- Add the lentils into the pot of vegetables and stir. Add about 2 cups water, a little at a time, to thin the soup (it can be more or less water, depending on the level of thickness you prefer). Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to come together. Taste and add salt, if needed. Serve with black pepper, Parmesan and a drizzle of olive oil.
LENTIL TOMATO SOUP
Lentil Tomato Soup is delicious and filling and very easy to make. Green vegetables make this soup a powerhouse of nutrition. Be sure not to overcook the lentils, as they can get rather mushy. After you stir in the tomatoes, let the soup simmer for 20 minutes if you have time in order to allow the flavors to blend a little more. And feel free to double the recipe and keep some in the fridge for a day or two, as the soup will get even better over this time.

LENTIL AND TOMATO SOUP WITH CORIANDER AND CUMIN
This is a wonderfully fragrant soup with a subtle mix of flavors. It's become a favorite of ours over the years. Originally from a Houston Chronicle food section recipe. Any type of lentils may be used, but the dark green French lentils retain their shape best during cooking. Recipe doubles well and freezes well, without the garnishes.

Steps:
- Start by putting the lentils in a sieve and rinsing them under cold water to remove some of the excess starch.
- Heat the oil in a pot and add in the onions. Turn the heat down to low and leave the onions to gently cook until soft and translucent, about 5-10 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato purée until all the onions have been coated and cook for about 2 minutes.
- Next, add in the red pepper and mix in with the onions.
- In the meantime, dissolve the two stock cubes in a litre of boiling water.
- Add the red lentils and the ham stock to the pot and stir. Leave the soup to simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- If you would like to purée the soup, do so now. I like to give it a few quick pulses with my stick blender to remove any large chunks of onion or pepper, but don´t purée it until completely smooth.
- Season the soup to taste with chilli flakes (if you like a little spice), salt and pepper.
- Serve hot, with some crusty bread and butter. The soup can also be easily reheated the next day or frozen.

LENTIL TOMATO SOUP
I'm a firm believer in eating foods that symbolize good luck and expanding fortune at the beginning of the year. Usually I stick with my black-eyed peas salad. But I've always been curious about how people in other countries usher in the New Year. Lentils and raisins are present on Italian tables because they resemble coins and swell when cooked. They're usually accompanied by pork, a symbol of prosperity and abundance. This is an easy, robust vegetarian soup that tastes almost meaty. The rosemary in the bouquet garni contributes a savory, earthy flavor.

- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, carrot and celery, and a generous pinch of salt, and continue to cook for another 5 minutes until tender. Add the tomatoes and bouquet garni, and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down somewhat and smell fragrant, about 10 minutes. Add the lentils, water and salt to taste. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer gently one hour. Taste and adjust seasonings. Remove the bouquet garni, and stir in the parsley. Serve, garnishing each bowl with Parmesan or Gruyère.
