    1 hrs 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 large can of rich beef broth
  • 3 carrots, thinly sliced
  • 3 stalks of celery, sliced
  • 1 cup of vibrant red lentils, thoroughly rinsed
  • 2 cups of finely chopped cabbage
  • 1 can of tomato sauce
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes
  • A hint of dried thyme
  • A touch of dried oregano
  • A sprinkle of salt
  • A dash of ground black pepper
  • 1 aromatic bay leaf
  • 1 pound of premium ground beef
  • A quarter cup of finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves of minced garlic

Step 1

In a large stockpot set over medium-high heat, mix together the flavorful broth, vibrant carrots, crunchy celery, and hearty lentils. Let the mixture bubble up and come to a gentle boil for a few minutes before lowering the heat. Introduce the tender cabbage, rich tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, fragrant thyme, earthy oregano, a pinch of salt, a dash of pepper, and a bay leaf for depth. Cover the pot and allow the medley to simmer until the vegetables and lentils meld into a harmonious blend, typically around 45 minutes.

Step 2

While the soup works its magic on the stove, prepare a skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the savory ground beef, aromatic onion, and pungent garlic. Cook and stir until the beef browns beautifully, and the onion turns soft and translucent, usually within 5 to 7 minutes. Remember to drain any excess fat from the skillet before adding this savory mixture to the simmering soup. Once done, serve up this delightful and nourishing soup to enjoy.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep beef in a sealed container in the coldest part of your refrigerator to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage.
  2. 2. Store cooked lentils in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze them for longer shelf life.
  3. 3. Wrap cabbage tightly in plastic wrap to keep it crisp and fresh in the crisper drawer of your fridge.
