Bryan’s Favorite Lentil Soup

Some years ago, we were invited to a friend's house for dinner, and she served this soup. I was enthusiastic about it, so she sent me the recipe, and called it "Bryan's Favorite Lentil Soup".(Note: We tried adding kale to this recipe, and it turned out well, too. Adding celery could also be a good addition.)
