Lentils make the ultimate comfort soup for a really good reason: they're packed with folate, which can reduce the risk of neural tube birth defects. So enjoy and be comforted!


  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 stalks of celery, sliced
  • 1 large carrot, sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 to 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 8 ounces light sausage, cut into slices
  • 1 bag (16-ounce) dried lentils, rinsed
  • 7 cups (approximately) chicken broth

1 In a large saucepan, sauté onion, celery, carrots, garlic and mushrooms in olive oil until onions are slightly brown.

2 Add the sausage and lentils and cover with chicken broth (about 7 cups).

3 Simmer for 1 hour until all of the liquid has been absorbed.
