Red lentil soup

This is student friendly food - it tastes good, is healthy, easy to make and doesn't cost much either :)

Lentils and other legumes are rich in proteins and fibers. You can use them in soups, salads and as a side dish. Red lentil soup is one of my favorite lentil recipes:

- 250 grams red lentils
- 1 liter water with vegetable stocking
- 1 tin chopped tomatoes (400 grams)
- 1 onion

Rinse the lentils in water. Chop the onion and warm it with some rapeseed oil in a casserole before adding the rest of the ingredients. Then add the rest of the ingredients and let it boil for 20 minutes.
You can also successfully add a number of other ingredients, like garlic, celery or different herbs and spices.

The soup tastes delicious with garlic bread.
