This soup recipe has been a long time coming! Over the years, I have been preparing dull lentil soups, which never came up on this site. However, no blog about vegetarian food would be complete without a good lentil soup, so I perfected one of my own.

Here she is. My lentil soup consists mainly of ingredients for the pantry, but it contains hearty greens and a little lemon for a bright, fresh taste. It is seasoned with some of my favorite spices and a lot of freshly ground black pepper. Honestly, this is the best lentil soup I’ve ever eaten.

The original title of this recipe was” spicy vegan lentil soup”, which is correct, but one bite. With over 500 five-star reviews, I think it’s safe to call this the best lentil soup. Period.

Whether you want to brighten up your meals or warm up with a steaming bowl of soup, this healthy lentil soup recipe is for you! This is one of my absolute favorites and I hope that it will become a staple in your kitchen as well.
