This soup is so amazing. I wish I was eating it right now... yum. Delicious. Lentil soup takes me back to childhood. We have a great family friend who made a great lentil soup and would bring it to the house for a family meal. I decided that I needed to create my own version of this old favorite. This recipe is so easy and very yummy. Lentils are great to cook with because they don't require the same amount of soaking/cooking time as beans, but they still give a hearty flavor. Enjoy- I am off to do more holiday candy making!
