Vegetable Soup with Lentils

This is a healthy vegetable soup, easy to make with items you have on hand. You can add any vegetabes you like, but the onion, carrot and celery are the base of this soup. The chef's trinity. Ingredients: 2 oz nitrate-free diced pancetta, or 3 strips uncooked bacon, diced 32 oz good quality chicken stock 1 small onion, chopped 4 stalks celery, chopped 3 carrots, chopped 1 medium zuchinni, chopped 1 14 oz can whole yellow or red tomatoes (I order a case of the yellow from Cento because they have less acid, and I prefer them). 1 bay leaf 1 tsp dried dill 1 tsp dried parsley Kosher salt Freshly ground pepper 1 cup Lentils ( I used Trader Joe's red split lentils, they appear yellow in the soup.

Ingredients: 2 oz uncured diced pancetta, or 3 slices uncooked bacon, diced 1 quart good lobster stock 1 lb unpeeled raw shrimp fresh parsley 2 leeks, white and green parts only, washed well, and chopped 2 cloves garlic, smashed and chopped 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper 1/4 cup cognac or brandy 1/4 cup sherry (not cooking sherry) 4 tbsp unsalted butter 1/4 cup flour 2 cups half and half, or 2% milk if you want to be healthier 1/3 cup tomato paste Kosher salt Freshly ground pepper Directions: Pe...
