Made this this morning, stuck it in the blender and made it the consistency (sort of) of a cream Soup.

Used the recipe on the back of the Lentil package, included

3 beef hot dogs instead of the 1 lb of sausage.

Also threw in a can of fire roasted tomatoes.

Only used 1/2 the bag of lentils though.

It made 7 plastic containers of about 10 oz each, very yummy and very filling!

2 onions chopped(used dried and estimated)

2 cloves garlic minced(used powdered, estimated)

1 cup carrots, sliced or chopped

3 beef hot dogs

1/2 lb lentils

4 cups chicken or veggie broth

1 can fire roasted tomatoes

1 tsp dried sage

1 tsp dried thyme

1/4 tsp oregano

1/4 tsp black pepper(or to taste)

1 tsp salt

Browned up dried onions, and hot dogs till a little browned,

threw the rest of the stuff in and let it cook until the lentils were very

soft, maybe 2 hours. Added salt and pepper to taste and stuck it in the

blender.

Total of about 1370 calories/7 containers = 195 calories for about

9 ounces of soup.
