    Roasted Beet Lentil Soup is hearty, delicious and healthy. The combination of roasted beets and vegetables with nutrient rich lentils makes a tasty soup you'll be making often. In addition, this soup is great for those on a gluten free, vegetarian and vegan diet.

    Lentils are an excellent source of protein, low in fat and high in fibre and a superb addition to soup!  I have really enjoyed working with and developing recipes for Alberta Pulse Growers. Alberta Pulse Growers support over 6,000 farmers!

    So what are "Pulses"? Pulses include lentils, beans, chickpeas and dry peas. A complete list of pulse varieties and some exceptional recipes can be found on Alberta Pulse Growers website.  Pulses are a great choice for vegetarian, vegan and gluten free diets.

    Roasting the beets and other vegetables adds some incredible flavour to this recipe! The tip to unlocking that great caramelized flavour is using a hot oven (425- 450ºF) and not crowding the vegetables. Don't pile your vegetable on top of one another - lay them out in one layer. For this recipe I used 2 foil lined baking sheets. Since I was using the roasted vegetables for soup I chopped them into small pieces, then tossed them in a generous amount of olive oil, salt and pepper and baked for about 30 minutes. YUM!
