Rinse the lentils under cold water and drain them well.
Peel and chop the onion and carrot into small pieces, and mince the garlic.
In a medium pot over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and carrot; sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Pour in the vegetable broth, and add the rinsed lentils. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.
Once the soup reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
After the lentils are tender, add the fresh spinach to the pot, stirring until the spinach wilts, which will take about 2-3 minutes.
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust as necessary.
Remove the pot from heat and serve the lentil soup hot. Enjoy your nutritious bowl of lentil soup with spinach!
