Red Lentil Sweet Potato Soup

Solid nutrition, definitely comfort food, and easily spiced up or sopped up, this soup evolved as the early spring temperature dropped and the rain became ice.  It is so simple, and the only attention required is stirring.

Red Lentil Sweet Potato Soup
serves 6

1 cup red lentils
1 medium large sweet potato
2 medium onions (I used homegrown Cippolini onions at the edge of sprouting greens)

Cook everything together, puree and eat!
