yum! As a variation I tried adding a Harissa spiced lamb sausage instead of the cauliflower to make it a little heartier. Equally yummy.The lemon juice at the end is essential for both recipes. Pros: Great simple Mediterranean recipe.
I like my spicy food spicy and thought it fell a little short. I added more curry powder salt and pepper for this first attempt. Other than that it was good as I've made lentil soups before that have tasted awful. Great soup with a little tweaking. Pros: Very hearty soup Cons: A little bland needed more salt and spice.
Really Tasty I made this without the tomato tomato paste spinich cilantro or lemmon juice (because I didn't have it and I'm not a huge fan of tomato's in my soup anyway) but it didn't matter! This is a really healthy (clean) high protein and good fiber yummy soup! And it's vegitarian I used the No-chicken broth from Imagine. I used up my precut veggies I had leftover. Pros: healthy hearty good fiber high protein
Tastey Lovely recipe easy to put together and versatile. Doubled the spices for even more flavor but I did use water instead of chicken broth (thus the need for more spice to compensate). Served with rice which had the same spices as the soup. Added some sweet neem leaves - very good. Pros: Really easy to put together with satisfying results. Cons: Could use more spice.
Very good Easy to make tasted great I love soups so this is a keeper. Pros: Very easy
Slow cooker and some substitutions I did this in the slow cooker and substituted some of the spices used kale instead of spinach increased the carrots and onions and omitted the cauliflower (didn't have any) and got a delicious stew. For the spices I used more freshly ground coriander than was advised I increased it to two teaspoons. I used the cinnamon and ground pepper as advised but no turmeric or cumin. Instead I used about a tablespoon of fresh minced ginger and a 1/4 teaspoon allspice and a dash of cayenne pepper. These gave it more of an Ethiopian flavor. I reduced the liquid by two cups and the stew is not very liquid-y. I could have kept those 2 cups but the stew is very very tasty anyway. I only used a 14 oz can of tomatoes. I used tomato paste but accidentally had bought tomato paste with pesto in it (garlic basil oregano). I used it anyway. I used 4 cups chopped fresh kale instead of spinach and no cauliflower. I cooked the onions and carrots and garlic and spices as directed before putting them in the slow cooker pot with everything else including the kale and lemon juice. Then I left it in the fridge overnight then put it in the slowcooker on low for 8 hours. But it probably only needed about 4-5 hours on low. It's delicious. I would make it again maybe trying the actual recipe! Pros: easy healthy spicy filling fragrant vegetarian Cons: none!
fantastic-- easy and satisfying Have made this a few times. Am vegetarian and find this to be a hearty filling soup. Non vegetarians love this also. Sometimes add vegan sausage to the soup the second day to give it more a kick.
Excellent meal soup I didn't pay attention when I added a 1 lbs bag of lentils to the pan. When I read the label I realized that this was equal to 3.5 cups. It turned out to a great meal soup. I also mixed the zest of the lemon with the cilantro. This is a very nice soup to add to my list of favorites. Pros: Forgiving to modifications of the recipe
