- Servings: 6
Ingredients
- (1 lb.) Ancestral Blend Ground Beef
- 2 Garlic Cloves - finely chopped
- 1 Onion - finely chopped
- 1 - 2 Cups Dried Lentils
- 32 oz. Chicken or Beef Broth
- 3 Carrots - diced
- 2 Celery Stalks - diced
- 24 Ounce Jar of Marinara Sauce
- 1 TBS Olive Oil
Directions
- Sautee onion & garlic: Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic for 3 minutes until golden on the edges.
- Brown & spice beef in the same large pot: Add beef and cook until it's no longer red, breaking it up as you go
- Add water, beef or chicken stock, jar of marinara sauce and lentils. Give it a stir, bring to light boil, then place lid on and reduce to medium low so it's simmering gently, for at least 2 hours. The longer it cooks, the tastier it is!
To thin the soup, add more chicken or beef stock, more marinara, or even a cup of water.
You can also use sausage instead of ground beef.
