    sausage lentil soupTheres something about Sausage Lentil Soup I just love. It's comfort in a bowl. The ingredients are so darn simple, almost as if the finished product is more than a sum of its part. I love when that happens. If you want to stretch your efforts farther, add another cup of lentils and another quart of broth, it'll be less sausage-y but just as delicious. And more frugal!

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 ½ lbs sausages/sausage meat of your choice I used Venison Sicilian sausages. Something like Italian,bratwurst, mild chorizo, rosemary, something herby, would work.
    • 2 cups chopped carrots
    • 1 cup chopped celery
    • 2 cups chopped onion
    • 8-10 garlic cloves
    • 1 tablespoon thyme
    • 1 teaspoon tumeric
    • 2 cup green lentils
    • 3 quarts broth
    • salt to taste

    Instructions
     

    • Take the skins of the sausage and saute in a large pot on medium.
    • When mostly cooked, add carrots, celery, onions and garlic.
    • Saute for 5-10 minutes, then add remaining ingredients.
    • Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer and cook for an hour.
    • Taste for seasoning, and serve!

    Notes

    • When it's been chilled, it'll thicken up more and you might need to thin it with water to get it to your desired consistency.

      Delicious soup! I didn't bother measuring amounts of veggies, i just eyeballed it. I only used 2 cloves of garlic and it was still tasty. I like adding in canned diced tomatoes or frozen kale (cooked separately) to just my bowl because the rest of my family does not like those veggies in soup.
