I was disappointed with this soup. The lentils were overcooked and mushy, and the chicken was dry. The broth was also very bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This soup was just okay. The lentils and chicken were cooked well, but the broth was a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper, which helped a bit, but it still wasn't as flavorful as I would have liked.

This soup was amazing! The lentils and chicken cooked perfectly in the slow cooker, and the broth was so flavorful. I added a little extra garlic and oregano, and it was perfect. My family loved it!
