Play Testing Soup

For those of you who asked, here's the recipe for the lentil soup we served at the Bethlehem play testing session:
Lentil Soup with Sweet Potatoes
Adapted from Main-Course Vegetarian Pleasures by Jeanne Lemlin
1/4 c. Olive Oil
4 lg. Garlic Cloves, minced
2 lg. Onions, diced
1 t. Dried Thyme
2 Bay Leaves
10 c. Vegetable Stock
1 1/4 c. Brown Lentils, rinsed
2 Celery Ribs, diced
1 bunch Kale, chopped
2 med. (1 lb.) Sweet Potatoes, peeled and diced
Salt and Pepper
  1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat.  Add the garlic, onions, thyme, and bay leaves.  Saute for 10 minutes or so.
  2. Raise the heat to high.  Stir in the stock, lentils, celery, kale, and pepper to taste.  Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
  3. Add the sweet potatoes and cook 20 more minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
  4. Remove the bay leaves.  Add salt to taste and serve!
