Cooking Time: 40 minutes

Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and diced
• 1 cup dried lentils, rinsed
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 Knorr vegetable stock cube
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
2. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the diced butternut squash and cook for another 5 minutes.
4. Add the lentils, vegetable broth, and Knorr vegetable stock cube. Stir to combine.
5. Season with ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
6. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes, or until the lentils and squash are tender.
7. Adjust seasoning if necessary, and serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Additional Notes

For a creamier texture, blend a portion of the soup and stir it back into the pot. You can also add a pinch of chili flakes for a spicy kick. If you prefer a vegan version, ensure the Knorr stock cube is plant-based.
