Mom decided that she wanted to make lentil soup and she wanted it to have more veges in it than she has put into her lentil soup in the past, which is great with me because I love veges!
She started sauteing the onion and garlic and sausage together and then added the carrots~
She added celery next and let the mixture cook and soften.
Next she added the chicken broth and the lentils and Mrs Dash spices and salt and pepper and got it nice and hot and let it cook for a bit to soften the lentils. Then came the diced tomatoes.
When the soup was almost done - she added the spinach and parmesan cheese and black olives. She puts black olives in almost everything because she loves them and she won't share not even one of them with me!
She really likes this recipe. It's a keeper and she'll be making it again as the weather gets colder.
Have a terrific Tuesday!
Love ya lots♥

I'm coming over to your house for soup. Yummy. I can love on you while I'm there too.
ReplyDeleteHave a woof woof day, Miss Molly. My best to your mom. ♥
That looks yummy. Did you get a taste of the sausage too?
ReplyDeleteNorma Jean loves veggies, too, including olives. She would enjoy a bowl of soup with your Mom. Yesterday her doctor said to keep her weight up, so she snacks a lot.
ReplyDeleteThat looks totally yummy. Especially the sausages!
ReplyDeleteToodle pip!
Bertie.
That looks extra super yummy!
ReplyDeleteYum...that pot of tasty ingredients is making me drool!
ReplyDeleteWe always like the way your Mama shares with you when she cooks. Our Mama needs to share with us a little more!
ReplyDeleteMolly, you have me drooling! I love ALL soups. Tell me, when your mom cooks, do you drool?
ReplyDeleteTHAT LOOKS SOOOOO TASTY!

PeeEssWoo: THAT LOOKS SOOOOOO GOOD! ;-)
Mom is drooling over that soup. She may just have to try to follow what your Mom did and make some too. Lightning and Misty like carrots, but not Timber. He doesn't like the way they feel in his mouth; the same with apples and lettuce. Guess he is more of a meat and potato kind of guy.
ReplyDeleteWoos - Lightning, Misty, and Timber
You are very good to do taste testing
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely soup weather right now. Mom loves lentil soup too, but she doesn't like any olives. Her recipe is similar minus the olives and spinach. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you got to sample all the veggies, Molly! Yum!
ReplyDeleteJan, Wag 'n Woof Pets
It looks so yummy. You are lucky to be the official taster.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a yummy soup.
ReplyDeleteYum, Yum, Yum!!!! You are lucky to get to "help" your mom with her cooking, Molly!
ReplyDeleteVeggies are THE BEST! I love carrot the most.
ReplyDeleteyour soup is da perfect tummy warmer for that cold days!!!
ReplyDeleteLulu: "That sounds very good! But why didn't your mom hold a sausage in front of your nose?"
ReplyDeleteCharlee: "That might have been a little risky."
Lulu: "For the sausage, maybe ..."
I love black olives too Molly!
