Lentil Soup

2 cup dry Lentils
1 fresh tomato or 1-8oz can tomato sauce
2 garlic cloves
¼ small onion, coarsely chopped
1 bunch – cilantro

Pick through lentils to remove any pebbles. Soak at least 4-6 hours. Rinse and then cover with 4 – 5 cups of cold water and cook over medium heat, adding minimal salt for taste. While that is cooking: in blender, combine tomato/tomato sauce, garlic, and onion. Sautee with a small amount of oil in a saucepan. When lentils are nearly cooked through, add tomato mixture and cilantro to lentils until cooked through.
