I wondered why it tasted as bland as cardboard. Even with other seasonings, when you’re cooking lentils, you MUST season with salt. Holy cow!

The picture at the bottom with the recipe definitely looks like a soup (again, a crazy delicious one). Thank you for clarifying, and for the original post!

I made mine with frozen veggies, and yellow lentils, and powder coconut milk and it turned out so creamy and filling.

Could you please clarify? I have red at home and would love to make this for dinner tonight.

I live in rural Alabama and consider myself lucky to get lentils of any kind. I can order over the internet, but is it really worth the extra expense? Any help is appreciated. TIA

Looks so easy and sounds really tasty.

The step-by-step photos appear to show regular brown lentils. The recipe calls for red lentils, which are much smaller, more fragile, and tend to disintegrate upon cooking.

Please clarify which type are actually used – I imagine that either kind would produce a good soup.
Thanks, Paula J.
