Ingredients
Instructions
In a large pot, heat water over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. If the pan starts to brown, add 2 additional tablespoons of water.
Add garlic, carrots, smoked paprika, and cumin. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently so garlic doesn’t brown.
Add the broth, diced tomatoes, red lentils, thyme, bay leaves, and salt and bring to a boil. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes.
Add chickpeas, cover pot, and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Take out the bay leaves, and then transfer 2 cups of the soup to a blender and puree until smooth. Add the pureed soup back in the pot and stir.
Add green beans and peas and simmer until vegetables are tender.
