Add remaining ingredients in order, except salt.
Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15 minutes or
until lentils are cooked (they will expand and turn orange in color).
Add salt to taste.
Transfer half of the soup to a blender and puree until smooth, then mix it

AuthorNote: Straight out of the pantry and into a bowl! I developed this
flavorful soup a few years ago during one of my "pantry challenges".
Periodically, I force myself to cook only with items found in my pantry to
remind myself that a delicous and satisfying meal is always on hand, even
when the fridge looks bare. (Plus it helps keep the stockpiling at bay!)
