Receta Hearty Red Lentil Soup
This is a wonderfully flavored soup that our whole family really enjoyed. I'm a huge fan of traditional Turkish Red Lentil soup which has more exotic flavors, but I was impressed by the down home goodness of this soup. I had three medium sized helpings, and even then I nibbled a bit more as I was putting the remainder into the tupperware. We doubled the recipe, so I can go to sleep now knowing it will taste even better tomorrow when I reheat it!

Direcciones
