About Green lentil soup

Green Lentil Soup is a hearty, nutritious dish rooted in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, known for its wholesome ingredients and robust flavor. The base of the soup typically includes green lentils, onions, carrots, celery, garlic, and tomatoes, seasoned with spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential vitamins, green lentils promote digestive health and sustained energy. This soup is naturally low in fat and cholesterol-free, making it a heart-healthy choice. It's often vegan-friendly and gluten-free, fitting various dietary preferences. However, depending on preparation, added ingredients like high-sodium broth or excess oil may impact its healthiness, so mindful cooking is key. Perfect for cooler months or as a satisfying meal year-round, Green Lentil Soup combines the earthy comfort of lentils with vibrant spices for a delicious and nourishing bowl.
