SLOW COOKER CREAMY LENTIL SOUP RECIPE - COOKING LIGHT

Slow Cooker Creamy Lentil Soup Recipe - Cooking Light image

Simple flavors and a rustic touch will make this soup an instant home-cooked favorite, especially on chilly, wintry days. Inexpensive dried lentils make up the bulk of the soup, helping fill in your fiber gaps and keep you full longer. Chickpeas are the secret ingredient to achieve supreme creaminess, which become delightfully smooth when blended, and sneak in an extra 3g fiber per serving.
