I followed the directions, with the exception of soaking the lentils for about an hour 1/2 first. I wish I had only added 1 -1/2 cups instead of two because the soup turned out a little thick. The flavor is delicious, but not exactly like Carraba's. I do wish I had tried the red wine vinegar addition, and will add it next time. All in all, a very good soup recipe. Thanks!

This is awesome, tastes just like the soup at carrabas. I took the advice of a previous reviewer and added the red wine vinegar and it tasted even better.

I can't compair this to Carrabas, but this was amazing, and I got lots of compliments. I am not good at judging spice amounts, so I went to the community boards and asked for help. SuperSpike came to the rescue and gave me some suggested amounts to use. Black pepper 1/4 tsp if finely ground or 1/2 tsp if coarse. Basil 1 tsp, oregano 1 tsp, parsley 1 tsp and thyme 1/2 tsp. I used her suggestions exactly and I will use those again, amazing taste. Thank you for your recipe.

I changed the recipe quite a bit bacause I sis not have all of the ingredients. I elimated the zucchini, instead adding baby bella mushrooms and spinich. I reduced the lentils to 1 1/2 cups, and at the end I added 2 additional cups of chicken broth (It was too think for me). After all of that the soup got rave reviews from my family. I will make again.
