Easy Lentil Soup With Roasted Tomatoes Recipe

I stayed home sick from work the other day, and, because it was freezing cold out, I decided to make myself a soup with whatever I had on hand. It turned out to be a bag of lentils, a can of beans, some cherry tomatoes and a block of Parmigiano-Reggiano. The soup was easy, filling and delicious -- plus I didn't have to leave my house to make it.Try making this at home, then storing the lentil soup (pre-tomato addition) in the refrigerator or freezer for a quick, re-heated weeknight meal. You can also use this as a base for adding onions or other vegetables or fresh herbs.
