Lunch: Mediterranean Lentil Soup

Lentils are a very healthy carbohydrate source with lots of fiber. This soup freezes well if you want to save part of it for another day.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons canola oil
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Italian turkey sausage links (meat squeezed out of casing), sliced
32 ounces reduced-sodium, fat-free chicken broth
1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes
3 cups water
1 cup dried lentils
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon oregano, dried
1 Bay leaf

Instructions

Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 3 minutes or until clear. Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
Add the turkey Italian sausage and cook about 8 minutes until brown. Add the remaining ingredients.
Bring the soup to a boil; reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
