Week 39 -- Apple Crisp Soup

I'm still working without my own kitchen, which is being a little challenge for keeping this blog going, but I did get one done for this week.  I didn't have time (or enough molasses) for the soup I was planning, so I threw this one together instead.

It doesn't really taste just like apple crisp, but it's sweet and cinnamon-y and it does have apples, and we had apple crisp earlier today so I have it on my mind.  Just use your imagination.

This is a terrible photo.

Apple Crisp Soup

1/2 onion, diced
2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1/4 cup raisins
1 cup red lentils
4-5 cups water
1 apple, diced
1 Tbsp cinnamon

1. Saute onion in a bit of water until softened.  Add raisins.  Cook until onions are translucent.

2.  Add lentils, sweet potatoes, and water.  Cook until sweet potatoes and lentils are tender.

3.  Add apples and cinnamon.  Turn down heat and let simmer about 10-15 minutes until apples are soft.  Add more water if needed.

Makes 3-4 servings.
