Kale Soup

The other veggies were sautéed in a small amount of olive oil until onions were clear.

I then blended the veggies and the kale (including the water it steamed in) (required 3 batches in the blender) with 2 cups vegetable broth (that’s all.

After returning everything to the pot, add:

1/4 cup nutritional yeast, 2 Tbsp + 2 tsp of McKay’s chicken seasoning (it’s vegan) and 1 tsp dried Basil.

RED LENTIL WAFFLES:

Soak two cups of red lentils in an equal amount of water for 10 minutes. Drain. Place equal amounts of soaked red lentils and water into a VitaMix and blend. Add salt to taste. Blend until very smooth. Prepare a hot waffle iron with oil so batter does not stick. Fill waffle iron with batter and bake until the light on the waffle iron goes off. Remove and serve. I serve this as a savory dish and use golden gravy as a topping. But it would be equally delicious with peanut butter, maple syrup, and/or berries and whipped cashew cream! Enjoy!
