Good morning! =)
I never was a “soup” person but ever since I’ve been on this health journey, I realized that not only is soup super healthy for me but it’s also SO filling. My first time trying lentil soup was at my friend’s house. I was surprised that I actually liked it! It was delicious and comforting. I made lentil soup for the first time yesterday using my crockpot. It was actually really good so I want to share it with you guys. It’s perfect for those cold winter months.
