Sausage Lentil Soup
1 lb-ish of hot Italian sausage
1 small onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks of celery, chopped
3 cans of chicken broth
2 cans of diced tomatoes
2 cups dried lentils
1 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cayenne
2 tsp oregano
2 tsp basil
2 tsp thyme
1 Tbsp parsley
Squeeze the sausage out of its casing (if it's links), brown and chop in decent sized chunks, but not too big. Drain the fat if there's a lot, otherwise a little fat never hurt anyone. Then dump everything else in the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour.
I'm serving it with homemade 9-grain bread
