I made this for gifts a couple of years ago and it has become a staple in our house – hubby and I thoroughly enjoy this soup!
Simple and delicious. Especially good on this cold winter day!
I’m always on the lookout for a good lentil soup recipe. I found this kind of bland, but once I added cumin, coriander and ginger, it was wonderful.
I received this mix for Christmas. The flavor was very good, but it turned out a bit thicker than I would’ve liked. I think next time I will add more broth and watch it more closely.
I made a half batch to test it before giving it as a gift and it is absolutely delicious.
I used red & green lentils. The only thing I would change next time is to put
more sun dried tomatoes in the soup because they are so incredibly delicious in this soup.
