Recipe Summary
One bowl of this bean and veggie soup is packed with an abundance of protein and fiber yet full of flavors the whole family will love. Best yet, itās as easy as can be to pull together, especially when you let your slow cooker do the heavy lifting. Lentils donāt require soaking, so once your ingredients are prepped and ready, simply toss them in your slow cooker before going about your day. Once tender, you canāt skip the most critical step ā blending. Processing in a blender with the center piece removed to allow steam to escape (but covering the opening with a towel, of course) is essential to thickening without flour and loading each spoonful with flavor. Though, our Crock-PotĀ lentil soup is a staple any time of year. For meat lovers, there are also lots of easy lentil soup variations to try with meat. Freeze leftovers for an even quicker fix meal down the road.
