Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is one of our family’s favorite soups - even the kids will eat it, despite the lentils.

It’s very filling and we usually have a lot of leftovers, but they reheat wonderfully.

Sometimes I add more lentils than are called for which makes the soup thicker and more stew-like.
