Hearty Lentil Soup

Rinse lentils. Chop carrots, celery, and onion.

In a large pot, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat.

Add chopped vegetables and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add lentils, vegetable broth, and diced tomatoes.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 40-45 minutes, or until lentils are tender.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.
