Spice up dinner with this flavor-filled Mexican lentil soup. It’s a party for your tastebuds!
Lentil soup is delicious. I remember having lentil something or other when I was younger, and I wasn’t a fan. The texture was weird, and it didn’t taste good, either. I stayed away from it after that, basing my choice to not eat it all on that one experience. Then, a few years ago a friend of mine made me a Mexican version of lentil soup, and I was in love!
Maybe my taste buds have grown up, or maybe the recipe is just delicious. Since my kids love this soup, I’m thinking it’s just that the recipe is that amazing. Pureeing the soup helps a lot with the texture if you or your kids are picky about texture.
This soup is creamy and tastes scrumptious. And it is super easy to make! Just throw it all in a crockpot or slow cooker, and it’ll be done for supper. Even if you didn’t plan ahead (like you often must do with crockpot meals), this soup only takes a few hours, so it can be thrown in the crockpot in the afternoon and still be ready by evening!
Lentils help reduce your cholesterol since it has soluble fiber. It also reduces the risk of heart disease. Lentils are a great source of protein, which will keep you feeling full for longer. So what are you waiting for? You’ll just love this simple and easy soup!
