Denise~ This looks great! I eat tons of Lentil Soup but must sayonce winters over I'm not into soup type foods much being in hot humid TX!
I'll plan on whipping this up next week! My not so healthy alter ego said... + a dollop of sour cream + shredded Parmesean Romano! Quote:

WOW! That looks great! Do lentils have that much protein in them? Why did I not ever realize that before? I actually have everything on hand to make this, and may very well do so tonight.
Thanks for sharing! Gayle

Hey - you know you can try to use the 0% FAGE as a fat free substitute for the sour cream?? I used the FAGE last night mixed with Hidden Valley Ranch Powder Mix...it was fabulous-o!!! And I really don't think that the paremsean is that bad for you, you just need a tiny bit since it is so bold. Happy eating! xoxo, Denise

So, Denise. I just want to make sure I'm clear.
I make this with either carrots and chicken OR tomatoes and chicken? And it serves 4, and that's what the nutrition info is based on??? THANKS SO MUCH! Gayle

I made this today and it's FANTASTIC!!! I made it with the canned diced tomatoes and chicken, plus 2 fresh minced garlic cloves.
HEAVEN! And DS (11) even liked it. When he originally asked what it was, I compared it to sloppy joes because it looked like that consistency. Gayle
