Very nice soup recipe and simple to make. I used an unoaked chardonnay and at the table we seasoned with a spice blend called Mediterrano and served with a crusty bread. We found the lemon over powered the other flavours just a bit so will cut back on that by at least half next time but that is purely a taste preference. **Mediterrano is a gourmet sea salt & pepper blend with herbs. I found it in great neighbourhood bakery and coffee shop in Peachland, BC. It's a Canadian product and the price point is good. Around $10.00 for 150grams.

This was so good! I made it vegetarian by using veggie broth. My carnivore son and his vegetarian girlfriend both loved it! I only had rosemary and not dill, and I also discovered I had no chardonnay, so left that out too... I didn't find the lemon at all overpowering like the previous reviewer. Will be making this again - thanks! Made for Aus/NZ recipe swap.

I have made this for dinner and the verdict from my early sampling is that it is great. I used green lentils and used mushrooms instead of carrots and vegetable stock - when I serve it I may top it with pesto - thanks for a great dinner for tonight TraceyMae

We really enjoyed this soup and were surprised it didn't need any spices. The lemon and wine really carried it. I did adjust the amounts a bit, using less oil, lentils, broth and wine and more vegetables and dill. I also added garlic, decreased the cooking time, and cooked the wine into it a little bit. It has a nice flavor.

We enjoyed this very much, a fresh and flavourful soup that took little preparation. I used Summer Dreaming Vegetable Broth, which I had made previously and frozen. Otherwise I made as directed, and this made a lovely supper, served with Dilly Rolls. Made for Aus/NZ swap#29, thank you, Tracey Mae!
