So delicious. I used vegetable stock (had that, not bouilouns). I will be making this again and again.

My family enjoyed this soup! I didn't have any carrots on hand, so I substituted asparagus. In addition, I found it a little bland, so I added some herbs and spices. I'll keep this recipe handy for a tasty, meatless dinner!

I used beef instead of vegetable stock, and the flavor was amazing. I followed the recipe pretty closely, and the lentils took quite a bit longer than stated to cook through. Otherwise great!!
