SPICY LENTIL SOUP
This is an adaptation of the lentil soup at my favorite Greek restaurant. You don't have to make it spicy, so feel free to modify it. You really can't substitute the red lentils though. If you can't find them at your supermarket, look for an Indian or Middle Eastern specialty store. They look red, but turn yellowish when cooked. Similar soups can be found in Turkey and other regions of the Middle East.
