At the Uliano house, we eat this soup at least once per week. It’s a major crowd-pleaser, and it is SO EASY so it’s a Sophie pleaser too. The best part is that if you make a double batch, it freezes perfectly for a whole food, plant-based dinner that’s ready ANY time. If you’re new to a vegan diet, this recipe is a must-do – Plus, it’s oil-free! For all of us who are trying to be heart-healthy, this No-Oil Lentil and Bell Pepper Soup rocks.
