One more:

Red Lentil Soup

2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped finely
1 celery stalk, chopped finely
1 large carrot, grated
1 bay leaf
1 cup red lentils
5 cups chicken stock
1/2 teaspoon dry ginger or 1 teaspoon grated

Can be served with a tablespoon of plain yogurt stirred into the center of each bowl.

Place butter, celery, onion and carrot into a large soup pan, and cook until vegetables are soft. Alternatively, do this step in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave, and transfer softened vegetables to soup pan. Add bay leaf and lentils. Stir fry for a minute or so, then add chicken stock and ginger. Boil until lentils are soft. You can also add more celery and carrots if you want to. I do that, and sometimes I also add leek.
