1Place the onions, celery, carrots, bell peppers, garlic, and 1 cup of the vegetable stock in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soft, 5 to 7 minutes.

2Add the lentils, tomatoes, kidney beans, and the remaining vegetable stock to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are soft, about 45 minutes. At the lime zest and juice and season with salt and pepper.
