At camp: Heat pot over medium to medium-high heat. Add olive oil and sauté onion, carrot, garlic and pepper until it begins to caramelize in the pan.
Add lentils and toast for about 30 seconds. Add water and cover pot with lid or camp plate. Cook soup for 15 minutes, stirring three times to keep lentils from sticking. Mash soup with fork or spoon to improve consistency, and add salt and pepper to taste.
Rip tortillas into pieces and place in bottom of serving bowl or cup. Pour soup over tortillas and garnish with chives, cheese and wedge of lime.
Serves 2.
