Directions
You can make this in a slow cooker or pressure cooker too!!
- First….wash and rinse your lentils in cold water then set aside
- I had Sautéed mushroom and onions in my freezer!
- Tip …. It’s great to keep batches in your freezer for soups, casseroles, sauces, burgers, frittatas, omelets, etc.
- Chop onion and sauté on a medium to high temperature in olive oil spray until golden brown and add the mushrooms until brown too then set aside
- In your pot ( I used my Cast-iron) spray well with the choice of cooking spray and once hot add garlic
- watch carefully and brown each side
- Add mushrooms and onions to your pot
- Add all other ingredients
- Cover pot and allow to cook for approximately 20 minutes.
- Then use your hand blender to puree all your ingredients! (if using a blender or Ninja only add half the amount of soup at a time to avoid the top exploding* then repeat until all is blended! You can leave chunks too!)
- Tip……Taste Taste Taste!!!!!!
- Then add more salt, pepper, oregano, and chili peppers or Frank’s hot sauce!
- Allow cooking for an hour or longer at the lowest temperature!
- Tip…The longer and slower it cooks the better it tastes!!!
- Eat immediately or Keep in your fridge for up to 5 days or so!
