Moroccan Harira Soup-Inspired Oatmeal

Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-Free Rolled Oats
• 1/2 cup Red Lentils
• 4 cups Vegetable Broth
• 1 cup Diced Tomatoes
• 1/2 medium Onion
• 1 stalk Celery
• 1/4 cup Cilantro
• 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1/2 tsp Cumin
• 1/4 tsp Turmeric
• 1/4 tsp Ginger

Instructions

1. 1Rinse the 1/2 cup of red lentils and the 1 cup of gluten-free rolled oats under cold running water until the water runs clear. Set aside.
2. 2Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat (350°F / 175°C). Add the 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped, and the 1 stalk of celery, finely chopped. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion and celery are softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
3. 3Stir in the 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric, and 1/4 teaspoon of ginger. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute more until the spices are fragrant.
4. 4Pour in the 4 cups of vegetable broth. Add the 1 cup of diced tomatoes, the rinsed 1/2 cup of red lentils, and the rinsed 1 cup of gluten-free rolled oats. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil.
5. 5Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. The oatmeal is ready when the lentils and oats are tender and the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency.
6. 6Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro and the 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
7. 7Serve the Moroccan Harira Soup-Inspired Oatmeal hot.
