Dinner should be eaten on the couch with a soul warming bowl of lentil soup smiles.
After a day of being on the go, this recipe is designed to welcome you home with a hot bowl (that cooked while you were at work) of zen. As you eat this, wind down and be at peace with all you accomplished today! This recipe was inspired by my favorite day of the week, date night on Friday! Tom and me were at our fave restaurant in NYC Cook Shop and as a special they had turmeric lentil soup. It was inoxicatingly creamy, warming, and so comforting. Tom, who usually does not like soup, wanted to order more to take home. Since I love cooking for him and this made him so happy, I went home and recipe tested. This soup turned out to be crazy easy to make and is my new long day sweatpants happy meal. Hope this warms your heart and gives you a moment of happiness each spoonful! Happy Cooking!
Slow Cooker Happy Tips:
- Salt soups at the end! When things cook slow and for a long time the flavors concentrate. If there is allot of salt then the soup will be come super salty. After the soup is done taste and keep adding salt until it zings!
- Add shiitake mushrooms to veggie soups! This will add an amazing beefy something special in the background that makes soups amazing.
