This delicious, hearty lentil soup made with sausage, carrots, potatoes, celery, and spices is perfect for warming you on those cold winter nights. What’s more, it’s easy to make, economical and very satisfying. High in protein and packed with fresh veggies, this will keep you feeling full!
This sausage lentil soup is a favorite from my childhood, and I still love it! It’s rich in flavor, and lentils are so easy to prepare. They cook so much quicker than dried beans, and a small amount goes a long way.
High in protein and made from scratch with lots of fresh veggies, this filling soup is so perfect for those colder days. It’s hearty enough to enjoy for dinner, along with some crusty bread of course! My kids and husband love it!
