Fakes Soupa (Lentil Soup)

Hi!!! I finished painting our living/dining area yesterday, I did a pretty good job for someone who really doesn’t know much about painting. Just to be sure, I looked up a few videos on youtube on “how to paint a room for beginners” hahahaha.
I am a bit tired, so I wanted to make something that was nutricious and gave me a little bit of an uplift, so what soup can do that for me? hmmm Lentil soup was my choice. The nutrients that exists in this soup from fiber to vitamins, are so beneficial for our bodies!!, and the greatest part about eating Lentil is it’s low in calories and since my husband drives all day long this soup is absolutely the best choice. I make this soup quite often at least once a week during the Winter and the Summer because I believe this can be eaten either hot or cold. (But that’s just me)
There are two ways to cook this soup with tomatoes or without, I enjoy both versions, but this time around I wanted to share with you the tomato version.

Delicious and easy to do. It makes a huge portion so it's excellent for big groups. On thing, depending on taste you might not want to add the entire bag of lentils if you like to have more stock on your soup. jashy.aponte.7 -
