Directions
Sauté the onion in the cooking spray in a saucepan until soft, but not browned.
Add the lentils and stir for 1 to 2 minutes, then add the liquid.
Bring to a boil, then half-cover the pan and let simmer gently for 20 minutes, until the lentils are very tender and pale-colored.
Purée the soup either by beating with a spo on, or by using a blender or food processor.
Add the lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
