Super-easy very healthy & hearty soup

[visciole]

I just made this and I feel an urge to share since it came out so well and was laughably easy.

Cook in about 3 cups water (I guess using stock would be even nicer):
--about a cup of red lentils
--about half a small cabbage, finely shredded

When it's soft (around 15 minutes) add about 2 cups of good tomato sauce and warm it all together.

I used my own homemade sauce (straight from the freezer), which is Marcella Hazan's Tomato Sauce II, basically onions, celery, carrots, tomatoes, olive oil, and salt, but you could use anything that tastes good.

Season. I added some salt and pepper. That's it.

I always feel like such a genius when I can throw together 3 or 4 things and come out with something delicious. Congrats!

Sounds delicious! Often the fewer ingredients a recipe has, the better it is. That way your ingredients can really shine! I'll have to give this a try. Thanks for sharing.
