Moroccan Lentil Soup with Chickpeas and Rice

This quick and easy Moroccan Soup is full of great store cupboard ingredients! Lentils, chickpeas, and rice give this vegetarian soup plenty of texture, and without the sour cream, this soup is vegan. Or add some shredded chicken or leftover roast pork to the soup to make it a meaty dinner idea. Add chili to make it spicy or keep it mild for the kids! And a side of tortilla wraps or flatbread is the perfect accompaniment!
