Cold weather & hearty soup + recipe

So today the weather turned dark, windy and almost wet so fast. I looked in the near bare pantry and decided that a nice warm soup for dinner would be perfect.
I was taught how to make this soup years ago and it is one of the only ways I like to eat lentils. I am a superbly fussy eater so when I tasted this soup I was impressed!
Of course I had to add pasta letters to mine-they make food fun!



And I made some yummy garlic and herb breads from some rolls I found in the freezer. Yummy!

Here's the recipe:

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 1 small onion, sliced
• 1 cup red lentils
• 2 carrots, chopped roughly
  
• Vege salt or vege stock
• Pepper

METHOD:

• Fry onions in a big pan with a small amount of vege oil until softened.
• Add carrots and lentils.
• Stir and add tinned tomatoes and one two cans of water.
• Add vege salt/stock and pepper to taste.
• Leave on low heat until carrot is softened and lentils cooked.
• Serve nice and hot!

And just because I was craving something sweet I whipped up this yummy desert:



Buried under the mountain of ice cream and topping I had hidden a thin slice of cake, choc chips and some crushed wafer. Mmmmm........
