Nutrition & Calorie Comments  

I've made a number of different lentil soups but I think this is my favorite. I used low sodium chicken broth, 2 15 1/2 oz cans of lentils and ditalini pasta. The consistency was perfect. A little too much sodium though. I'll try dried lentils next time and veg broth. I got 8 1 1/2 cup servings.	Submitted by: LISA875 (2/2/11) report inappropriate
I have got to believe this is less calories than it says because it made a huge pot! I scooped out 8 1 cup servings and I swear there is just as much left in the pot. I used Orzo pasta and dried lentils. It was delicious!	Submitted by: RUNNINGITOFF (1/31/11) report inappropriate
Great soup. I also had a huge pot! I left out the pasta and added a little fat free ham. Yum!	Submitted by: DHGREINER (10/22/10) report inappropriate

Very tasty and zippy! I cut down on the sodium content by not using canned lentils; I cooked dry lentils instead.	Submitted by: NOTGIVINGUP49 (3/8/09) report inappropriate
you can lower the sodium if you make your own stock, cook your own lentils and use fresh tomatoes! It'll taste better too!	Submitted by: AHHGEE (3/3/09) report inappropriate
It sounds good, but I'm concerned about the high sodium content...any ideas on how to lower that?	Submitted by: ANUSLIMMERME (3/3/09) report inappropriate
I love hearty soups. You can make it less fat w/o the oil. I like potato instead of pasta, but that is a personal preference.	Submitted by: 8MOREB4 (2/20/09) report inappropriate
this recipe is really tasty and good, but I dont use the oil I use a one calorie spray to sweat the vegetables in and that cuts the fat to 0.1grms and makes it even healthier.	Submitted by: CUDDLESUK (9/4/08) report inappropriate
This was delicious. I used fat free low sodium chicken broth and 2 packets of no sodium beef broth powder. I also added 1/2 teas of dried marjoram and 1 teaspoon of dried parsley. Sprinklle alittle grated parmesian on top before serving-yummy.	Submitted by: KATHIIACO (2/22/08) report inappropriate
I was a bit hesitant to make this, but was happy that it turned out so good. I think it needs a little salt, but I like salt, so... I'll definately make it again. I cooked the whole bag of lentils, used 2 cups in this, then froze the rest in 2 cup portions. I also froze alot of this soup.	Submitted by: MOMOKEV (1/21/08) report inappropriate
This soup is delicious and so low in calories that I can really fill up on it and not feel guilty at all. The only thing is that the serving sizes do not seem to be very accurate. I added an extra 3/4 cup pasta, and ended up with fifteen, one cup servings that were 160 something calories each.	Submitted by: EJORDANE (9/17/07) report inappropriate
This is a super soup that even my 10-year son loves. It makes a whole lot, so I'm a little suspicious of the nutritional information that is based on 4 servings.	Submitted by: CHERYLYNNC57 (9/8/07) report inappropriate
