This soup is a great way to use up leftover lentils. I had a can of lentils in my pantry and I was looking for a way to use them up. This soup was the perfect solution.

The lentils were a bit overcooked, but the soup was still very flavorful.

The soup was a little too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some plain yogurt.
