I would definitely fall into being one of your Mediterranean friends ………….. but then again, I LOVE Tex Mex. I guess you can dress me up and take me anywhere. I promise I’ll try to keep the hummus and salsa off my shirt! Love this soup, can’t wait to try it. Pinning!
Oh my gosh. You make me laugh.
What a lovely bowl of soup and the cumin must give it incredible flavor. I love lentils, but have never used the red ones. Neither of us is afraid of trying things – how will you ever learn in you don’t. I was so relieved to read that your friend liked the soup after all.

The cumin gives it great taste, but if you are not judicious you can ruin your recipe quickly. If you make it try a little at a time until you please your palate. I guess I don’t need to tell you that since you are such a good cook.
Hi Ms Lemon,
I’m loving the addition of lemon juice to this soup – it looks fantastic and what a nice change up. Comforting and refreshing at the same time.
Found you at Wake Up Wednesday and following. Beautiful blog. Have a great day.
Thank you for stopping by. Yes the lemon just brightens the flavor of almost any dish. My Dad used to use vinegar and we thought he was weird when we were kids, but turns out Dad was on to something.:)
Madonna,
I have been eating lentil soup for about 48 years now! Granted, I AM Greek, so it’s just second nature to me, but tourists love it when they visit and all my Scandinavian friends make it at least once a week, and especially in the winter.
I think you and I would make great dinner companions and of course our choice would always be Zov’s!

Poppy, I love most food, but I especially love anything French or Mediterranean.
Lentil soup, the culinary equivalent of a soft, warm blanket!
Marysol, that made me smile. Thank you for visiting.
Your soup looks so creamy and delicious! I love love love soups!
I am definitely pinning this. Our family loves lentils! And there is nothing like a hot bowl of soup on a chilly winter evening! Good guacamole is the best! My daughter is addicted to it. I make it for her at least 3 times a week…we go through so many avocados here! Visiting from LOBS! Thanks for linking up with us!
I loved the soup at first bite. When it got to the avocados it took me a little while. Thanks for stopping by.
Hello! Sounds wonderful! Love that it’s vegetarian. Some people are just pickier than others- that seems especially true if they grew up eating out-of-the-box type recipes from the 50-70’s. I love all types of foods and cuisines. Lentils are a staple at our home and I make them several different ways. Have a great weekend 🙂
Lentils are always in my pantry now days. I try to find something new all the time that I have not had before or a new way to cook something. It has been a wonderful experiment. Thank you for stopping by.
Lentil soup is a beautiful thing. This is a great recipe. Thanks for sharing.

I hope you enjoy it Velva. Thanks for stopping by.
Pinning…this sounds so good. It is so cold for our area that this would be so comforting and warm. I know we are balmy compared to many but all things are relative and I am cold. LOL!
Have a blessed weekend, Ginger
I hope you like it Ginger. It has turn too warm this week for us – it was over 90°.
Just reading this made me so hungry. This is the perfect weather for a bowl of warm soup. I’m saving this recipe. Thank you for sharing it. Wish we had a Zov’s nearby. laurie
I love soup and this recipe looks amazing. Thanks for sharing at TTF!
This is a beautiful bowl of soup. My daughter loves lentils and I can’t think of a better way to serve them. So hearty, comforting and I’m sure delicious! I may have to make this on Sunday. Thanks for sharing.
I do hope you make it. It has been on the restaurant’s menu since they opened in 1989. It is their signature soup. Thank you for visiting.
I haven’t had a lot of Mediterranean food, but sounds yummy and I do love to try something new! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
Your Lentil Soup looks absolutely fabulous. I may make this soup this week for a sick friend of mine, she will just love it. Thanks for helping us celebrate Three Years at Full Plate Thursday and come back soon!
Miz Helen
It’s a wonderful soup!
Perfect for the winter, as it’s very rich
Thank you Winnie. I will concede it is different for some palates, but I thought it was wonderful at first bite.
What a beautiful soup. Thank you for the recipe. This is just the type of cool-weather soup we need. Thank you Ms. Lemon! 🙂

I hope you will give it a try. Thanks for visiting.

Such a cute story. I’ll have to try red lentils.
Thanks for visiting Barbara. I think you will like red lentils since they purée themselves.
It looks and sounds so good! Thank you for sharing this at the Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House. Hope to see your prettiness again Monday at the Bash! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
I made this soup and hubby and I both loved it. I will use a little less pepper next time though. Other than that I wouldn’t change a thing.
Kim, I am thrilled you made this soup. I hope you made enough to freeze and then you can always have a bowl when you feel like it. Thank you so much for letting me know. By all means adjust the seasoning to your taste.
I have several lentil soup recipes that I like; this one looks like it would be a great addition to my collection! I love the addition of lemon juice.
This is my favorite soup. The red lentils turn golden. I hope you will try the lemon juice. My Dad used to use red wine vinegar, but I did not know why, now I know. It just enhances the flavors. I use it whenever I can in other recipes just for the last bit of umph. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it.
Just made this last night and it’s excellent! I added some chopped spicy turkey sausage and served it with bread. A perfect comfort meal that’s pretty darn healthy! Thank you!
You just made my day. Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know that you and your family enjoyed it.
