Meatless Monday: Lentil, Sweet Potato, and Kale Soup

This week’s featured soup is a hearty and healthy Lentil, Sweet Potato and Kale. This soup is a few steps from being a stew, as it is chock-full of goodness—Puy lentils, sweet potato, carrots, celery, tomatoes, and kale. Make a big pot on a lazy Sunday, like I did, and you’ll be good for the week.

Rather than cook the lentils directly in the broth, as was directed in the recipe, I like to cook them separately. This avoids “muddying” the soup while the lentils are cooking. Then you can add the cooked lentils back into the soup along with the tomatoes.


This soup is pretty filling on its own, but you can make it a complete meal by serving with some fresh warm crusty bread and your favourite hard cheese.

You can the find the recipe over at Jessie Monds.
