Yum! Perfect for a cold day. Will definitely make again!
So easy and delicious! I added some lemon juice at the end.
I don’t understand why people love lentils. This soup was just okay.
This recipe was fantastic! I’ve made it three times already!
I added a pinch of cayenne and it was amazing! 😍
Honestly, it was too bland for my taste. Needs more spice.
