AWESOME!
Loved this recipe! So easy and nutritious! The red bell pepper and green spinach make the soup look as good as it tastes. I used chicken stock instead of the bouillon and omitted the rice. I also added some crushed red pepper to give it a kick. My friends loved it.

¡¡¡ Delicious !!!!!
I liked very much the flavor of this lentils soup.
It´s very easy to making and the flavor is great. I don´t have spinachs and I added 1/2 cup of vegetables precooked. From today it´s one of my favorite recipes.
Thanks
