Add a photoThis is a creamy, flavorful, and incredibly healthy soup. The next time you're in the mood for split pea soup (also very healthy), try this instead. It has a wonderful body and a great hearty flavor. If you haven't had sumac before as a seasoning, this is a great dish to try it with. Sumac is commonly used in the middle east to season just about any dish, and it's great over this soup. Put a few sprinkles of sumac and cayenne over this soup and it takes on a rich and spicy demeanor. Between the broccoli and the lentils, this soup packs an amazing amount of nutrients and protein in a delicious package.

To be honest, this soup isn't all that complex or interesting. But not many creamy soups are. This gets a 4.5 rating because it is remarkably creamy and flavorful for a soup with very healthy ingredients. And a little cayenne, sumac or emeril's essence will add another flavor dimension for those who want it.Этот рецепт был приготовлен/опробован мной!1 person likes this review

This recipe is very similar to a cauliflower potato and blue cheese soup that I make. I like the addition of the sumac.

13 ноября 2011I was very disapointed about this soup. I followed it to a key and I had one large pot of bland soup. No amazing flavors popped, No flavor at all.I wont be making this again...
11 ноября 2011What a fantastic idea. I make broccoli soup often, and lentil soup occasionally; it never occurred to me to combine them. If you add the broccoli halfway through the cooking instead of at the beginning, would the soup be greener?
11 ноября 2011I think this is a fantastic soup - I love that you have incorporated brocolli and your seasonings sound delicious. Perfect for a cold winter lunch.
