Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 md Onion, chopped
2 md Carrots, sliced
2 T Water, stock, or sherry for
Sauteing
7 c Water
3/4 c Dried lentils
2 md Tomatoes
1 c Fresh or frozen corn
1 sm Sweet potato, diced
4 t Tamari or soy sauce
1 c Cooked brown rice
2 T Chopped fresh parsley (I
Double this amount)

Corn and sweet potatoes give this soup a nice sweetness. It's adapted from
Mark Bricklin's _Lose Weight Naturally Cookbook_ (Rodale), which uses too
much meat and dairy for our purposes; this one, however, adapts well by
substituting for the oil in the saute. It also freezes and microwaves well
for brown-bag lunches.

Saute the onion and carrots in a large saucepan over low heat, stirring
occasionally, until the onions are translucent.

Add water, lentils, tomatoes, corn, and sweet potato. Bring to a boil,
reduce heat, cover and simmer for 25 min. Add the tamari, rice and parsley,
and heat through before serving.
