Yield: Serves 6. Each serving: 2 cups

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups chopped red onion
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon granulate garlic
Black pepper to taste
3 cups water
2 cups dried lentils
3 (14-ounce) cans fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
2 (14-ounce) cans no-added-salt diced tomatoes, undrained
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion; sauté for 3 minutes. Add the seasonings, water, lentils, broth and tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer on low until lentils are tender, about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Blend 1/2 of soup in blender and pour back into soup pot. Stir well. Adjust seasonings and consistency.

Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro. Serve hot. Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.
