Cast of characters awaiting their cues

Today's soup involves red lentils, yellow split peas, garlic, onions, diced tomatoes, navy beans, turmeric, kosher salt, Thai red curry paste, some leftover lentil flour, chicken stock. Basically just what was lying about. I needed soup.

I simmered it for 45 minutes, fished out the chicken bones, then blended it all. Then 30 minutes more.

Very filling lunch, particularly with a slice of cornbread.

And enough for half a dozen more meals. Handsome Son might get some of this.
