I've made this soup several times now, and it's always a hit with my family. The lentils are hearty and filling, and the vegetables add a nice sweetness and crunch.

This lentil soup is a lifesaver on busy weeknights. It's so easy to throw everything in the slow cooker in the morning, and then come home to a delicious and healthy meal.
