Ingredients

    1 tbsp (15 mL) butter
    1 cup (250 mL) chopped onion
    1 cup (250 mL) thinly sliced celery (or baby spinach leaves, if desired)
    4 cups (1 L) peeled, diced sweet potato (about 2)
    1/2 tsp (2 mL) ground cumin
    4 cups (1 L) reduced-sodium chicken broth
    19 oz (540 mL) can lentils, drained and rinsed
    1 cup (250 mL) shredded Canadian Gouda, divided
    Salt and pepper, to taste
    1/2 cup (125 mL) grape tomatoes, quartered

Preparation

In a pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onions and celery and saute for 3 minutes or until softened. Stir in sweet potatoes and cumin and saut?or 2 minutes. Add broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

In a blender, in batches, or with an immersion blender, puree soup until smooth. Return to pot if using a blender. Stir in lentils; cook on medium heat for 2 minutes or until heated through.

Remove from heat and stir in half of the Gouda (and all of the spinach leaves if you chose not to use celery). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into bowls and sprinkle each serving with remaining Gouda and tomatoes.
