Vegan Vegetable Lentil Soup

Don't settle for canned soup; homemade is so much better - and saves cans, too! Plus, this one-pot Vegan Vegetable Lentil Soup recipe is so easy to make and tastes so good, it's undoubtedly going to become a family favorite! If you're willing to share, that is... 

I've been on a crazy Lentil Soup kick lately... I must have had it for lunch at least 3-4 times a week for the past 2 months... 

Only, I'd made it a habit of eating it from a can — yes, yes, really: straight out of a can! — which I would buy by the case at Costco. Surprisingly, despite the overall mushiness and "overcookedness" (I  totally just made up that word) of the lentils, the soup is still decent enough to keep me coming back for more. But then I started thinking about all the waste that I was generating, between the cans themselves and the cardboard box that held all the cans together. 

So I thought hey, why not make a big batch of homemade lentil soup on the week-end instead and have it last me all week, if I'm going to eat this much Lentil Soup? Not only is my soup going to taste that much better, but I'm also going to save all this waste, too! Not to mention be done with the mushy lentils! 

And so I went through with this plan and figured I would log the recipe, while I was at it... because I get the feeling I'll be making this soup time and time again! Indeed, this homemade version is so good, I may very well find myself eating it every day, now! 

Or well, at least for a couple more weeks, or months!
