One of my favorite types of soup to make is with lentils. Lentil soups are hearty, healthy and tasty. This lentil soup is made with other vegetables including barley, carrots and tomatoes. Each vegetable adds its own layer of flavor and texture to the soup.

I love creating recipes with lentils -they are very nutritious and tasty as well. One of my favorite ways to cook lentils is to make soup with them. I made this particular soup with red lentils and few other root vegetables. I pureed the soup, giving it smooth, tangy, velvety and slightly creamy feel.
