 Hearty and healthy, this easy lentil soup recipe combines nutritious
 lentils, garden-fresh vegetables, and a slew of spices into a warm
 bowl of comforting goodness. This recipe first appeared in Season 10
 of Good Eats.

 Place the olive oil into a large, 6 qt Dutch oven set over medium
 heat. Once hot, add the onion, carrot, celery, and salt, and sweat
 until the onions are translucent, 6 to 7 minutes.

 Add the lentils, tomatoes, broth, coriander, cumin, and grains of
 paradise, and stir to combine.

 Increase heat to high and bring just to a boil. Reduce the heat to
 low, cover, and cook at a low simmer until the lentils are tender, 35
 to 40 minutes.

 Using an immersion blender, puree to your preferred consistency. Serve
 immediately.
