$\"best$ <\/p>\n

This soup recipe was a long time coming!<\/strong> Over the years, I made some lackluster lentil soups that never saw the light of day on this website. No vegetarian food blog would be complete without a proper lentil soup, though, so I perfected one of my own.<\/p>\n

Here it is. My lentil soup is made with mostly pantry ingredients but includes hearty greens and a squeeze of lemon for bright, fresh flavor. It’s seasoned with a few of my favorite spices and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Honestly, it’s the best lentil soup I’ve ever had.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The original title of this recipe was “Spiced Vegan Lentil Soup,” which is accurate, but a mouthful. With over 500 five-star reviews, I think it’s safe to call this the Best Lentil Soup.<\/strong> Period.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re looking to lighten up your meals or warm up with a steaming bowl of soup, this healthy lentil soup recipe is for you! It’s one of my all-time favorites and I hope it becomes a staple in your kitchen as well.<\/p>\n

How to Make the Best Lentil Soup<\/h2>\n
Five reasons to love this recipe:<\/em><\/p>\n
\n
The recipe calls for seasonal vegetables and affordable pantry ingredients, but tastes gourmet.<\/li>\n
This lentil soup has an amazing hearty texture that’s lightly creamy (yet there is no cream). The trick is to blend up a portion of the soup once the lentils are tender, and then pour it back into the pot. It’s like magic.<\/li>\n
This nutritious, well-balanced soup counts as a meal if you enjoy a generous portion. Lentils are rich in protein, fiber, iron and folate.<\/li>\n
Lentil soup packs well for lunch in a leak-proof container, and it tastes even better the next day.<\/li>\n
This soup freezes and defrosts well. Make soup now and enjoy it later!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
