This was dh's and my first experience with lentils, and we loved them! I doubled the recipe and used chicken bouillon cubes instead of vegetable (couldn't find veg in my store). I also had some leftover Boston Butt in the freezer that I warmed up and then shredded and threw in there. YUM-O! I will be making this over and over...

    This was very tasty. We did some modifications (more garlic! and blended it) . I think some roasted bell pepper would be a lovely addition!

    My DH and I really enjoyed this classic soup that happily simmered in my crockpot for a full 10 hours. Since I don't generally use any canned soups, I tried adding an additional cup of mushrooms, chopped fine, and sauteed them with the other veggies. Then I added vegetable broth instead of water and bouillon granules. A teaspoon of cumin, a pinch of salt and lots of black pepper and voila! Your recipes are always a hit with us Sharon

    This is quite wonderful! I made it on the stovetop becuase I forgot to start it this morning. It was easy and delicious! Even my picky hubby said it was really good. I made it as is except I added a little more garlic and some hot pepper. (I also snuck in some flax seeds). Thanks for the wonderful recipe Sharon!!
