1
Start by heating oil in a large pot. When hot, add the onion and cook until soft, 3-4 minutes. Then add the garlic and cook for only 1 minute so it does not burn. Next add the carrot and bell peppers and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
2
Add the drained beans, diced tomatoes and stock and cook another 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Then add in the lentils, cover and let the soup simmer another 8-10 minutes.
3
Add the spices: cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes and also add in the frozen corn kernels (the heat will warm them through). Give the soup a stir.
4
Finally add the crushed tomatoes, meatless crumbles, salt and pepper and stir well. Keep partially covered and let simmer for another 30-35 minutes or until all flavors are combined. Give the soup a taste and adjust your spices as needed.
