Instructions

  • In a large pot pour 6 cups of filtered water.
  • Add half the red onion, a garlic clove, the grassfed beef, salt, pepper, and rinsed lentils.
  • Bring to a boil and turn down the heat to a simmer in low.
  • Cook for 15-25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the suace (guiso)
  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, red pepper and cook until tender, 8-10 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook for another 7-10 mins until the guiso has a thick consistency.
  • Once the guiso is ready go back to the lentils and add the beef broth, mixed precooked frozen vegetables, and the guiso. Simmer on low for another 10 minutes.
  • To serve, place some of the soup in a bowl, and at this point add healing turmeric and more of the guiso (sauce) if you'd like along with some avocado slices or rice/quinoa . Enjoy!

Notes

*** Note:***
If you are going to use fresh vegetables you must add them 10 minutes into cooking the lentils and beef because they take longer to cook.
Use organic ingredients when possible.
