Crock Pot Lentil Soup Recipe
Description
All ingredients except parsley are added to the crock pot, where the lentils cook low and slow for 6-8 hours or higher heat for 3-4 hours until tender. The finely chopped onion, carrots, and celery soften into a flavorful base that complements the hearty lentils. Diced roasted tomatoes add a subtle sweetness and acidity, brightening the broth. Seasonings include garlic, salt, pepper, and fresh parsley stirred in near serving to maintain its fresh herbal note.
The soup offers a balanced texture of tender legumes and soft vegetables in a broth rich with chicken stock and tomato flavors. It suits a warming lunch or dinner and pairs well with bread or salad.
Leftovers can be safely refrigerated up to 3-4 days in airtight containers, making it convenient for future meals.
