I add tomato paste, a can of rinsed black beans and purée with an immersion blender. Great recipe

This is a great hearty soup. Every time I’ve made it though, I’ve omitted the tomatoes and still enjoy it.

My all time favorite soup! We aren’t vegetarian so I add 1/2 lb Italian sausage before the onions.

Soooooooo goood! Thank you! I altered yr recipe with what I had on hand—red lentils, chicken broth, fire-roasted tomatoes and siracha sauce in lieu of pepper flakes but it was DELICIOUS. Your recipes are my go-to. Thank you!

In reply to Amy G. Hi Amy, you can cook for 4-5 hours on high or 6-7 on low in a crockpot.

I made this soup today and substituted the thyme with 1/4 tsp of herb de Provence seasoning. I did cut back on the Cumin and curry to about 1/2 tsp each.
My family loved it! Even my son who almost never cares for soup went back for seconds!

Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe.
