Instructions
-
Heat the oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove the sausage to a plate. Add the onion, carrots and celery to the drippings in the pot and cook, stirring, until soft and just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the mixture with salt and pepper.
-
Add the garlic, cumin and red pepper flakes and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the lentils, tomatoes, bay leaf, 8 cups of water and the sausage. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the lentils are soft, about 45 minutes. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Why this Lentil and Sausage Soup works for PCOS
Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Lentil and Sausage Soup that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
