Lentil Soup

"Unlike standard, dull, lentil dishes, this soup has complex flavors. Very pungent. Sweet, tart and tasty. Should simmer all day. This is from the Moosewood Cookbook."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a born and raised city girl who moved to a small town, and love it! I now live in Lexington KY, and I am trying to adjust back to the larger town feel. One good thing...more restaurants! I love to cook, and learned from my father, who passed away 4 years ago. He cooked by throwing things together, and it always tasted great. I love to experiment in the kitchen, and am thrilled when my husband calls me a good cook. Really, I just love to do it!
