Creamy Red Lentil Soup Recipe
A few years back, I wrote up a recipe for Red Lentil Soup, which happens to be one of my favorites. It has a nice delicious lemony flavor. Today, we have another red lentil soup, but this one is a little different. This recipe does not have lemons, so the flavor is totally different. Today’s recipe calls for coconut milk so this soup is on the creamier side.
