Curried Lentil Soup

Jump to Recipe

Now that some of the days are growing cooler, I am looking forward to soup making again. It is my favorite thing to eat when it’s cold out. Especially when it’s winter! But, let’s not get ahead of ourselves now.

This soup is a wonderful, hearty meal. It is super filling, healthy and bursting with flavor. It’s incredibly easy to make. You basically throw everything into the pot and let it simmer for an hour. Easy peasy! And it smells amazing to boot. A great way to feed hungry mouths.
