1 clove minced garlic (or more if desired)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup baby carrots, rinsed
2 large potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/2 inch thick
3 stalks celery, sliced thin

Brown meat and place in stockpot with garlic, onion, boullion granules, salt, pepper, lentils and carrots.
Simmer while preparing celery and potatoes, approximately 10 minutes.
Add celery and potatoes to soup stock.
Add remaining ingredients and simmer until potatoes and carrots are tender, approximately 20 minutes more.
It may be necessary to add more water.
