Directions
Take-Out Lentil Soup With Garlic and Cumin, Cuisines all over the world have some version of this warming, garlicky soup It’s the scent of cumin that makes this one Middle-Eastern at the heart The soup is so fast and easy to make, and the ingredients are ones you are likely to already have in your pantry, so you’ll find it the perfect solution to the eternal question: What’s for dinner? From the Take-Out Menu Cookbook , This was a marvelously, flavorful lentil soup! The added lemon juice and drizzle of olive oil was a nice touch used chicken broth this time, but will try veg broth next This recipe is so easy , and I always have the ingredients on hand So it’s definitely gonna be a regular dish in this house Thanks for sharing , Oops–I forgot to add the lemon first time around, but very much enjoyed the warm flavor without it Will try reheated soup with lemon to see how the taste changes Based on my mistake, loved everything about this soup–easy, hearty, attractive and healthy With or without lemon, this soup is a keeper–thanks TxGriffLover!
