Footnotes

  • Cook's Notes:
  • Make it even easier by using a 12-ounce package of frozen mirepoix (blend of onions, celery, and carrots) instead of spending time dicing them.
  • Substitute soy sauce for liquid aminos, if desired.

Loved it. I made it with yellow and brown lentils and ham. Didn't use the spinach or aminos. One of my favorite soups. Just cooked on top of stove.

I thought it was very tasty, although my husband thought it needed some hot sauce.
