Directions

Coat a 4 quart pot with non-stick cooking spray. Cook garlic over medium heat for about 30 seconds, until it just starts to show some color. Add everything else except the Parmesan cheese and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer about 45 minutes, until lentils are soft. Remove the bay leaves. Blend 2 cups of the soup in a blender and return to the pot, or use a potato masher. Serve with the Parmesan.
