Vegan Red Lentil Soup with Lemon and Cumin
This soup….this soup is my favorite lentil soup. I almost can’t come up with the words to describe how much I love this soup. I’ve made it several times in the past few weeks because it is simply that good. And it’s simple to make. Basically, it’s one of those toss everything into the pot […]
