I’ve partnered with Peapod LLC to create this content. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

My family loves this soup because it is full of the flavors they love from their favorite Mexican restaurant. Each of my children can customize their soup to their liking with additional topping such as extra cheese, sour cream and avocado.

How to Make Healthy Lentil Soup | Cheap Soup Recipe

Cheap hearty lentil soup recipe with optional ham/bacon garnish! It’s a great way to use up the rest of your Christmas ham! The cost of this meal works out to about $0.73/generous serving if you get all your ingredients at Aldi (or another cheap store) except the lentils which are not available at Aldi ($1/16 oz at Walmart). You should get around 4 quarts/1 Gal of soup out of this recipe, so it’s perfect recipe to divide into dinner size portions and freeze them for a wonderful, hearty meal on a busy night. Or you can half this recipe, and it will serve 6! I also put some in ice cube trays and froze it for baby food!
To make vegetarian, simply omit the ham and use vegetable broth!

Lentil Soup ingredients

4-6 slices of ham or bacon
4-5 carrots peeled and chopped
2 onions chopped

2)add carrots & onions to pot and cook until starting to soften about 2 minutes and then add garlic and stir until fragrant about 30 seconds.

3)stir in tomatoes, bay leaves, thyme, salt and lentils.

8)reduce heat to low/med-low to maintain a gentle simmer, cover leaving small gap, and cook until lentils are tender (30-35 minutes for brown lentils and 40-45 minutes for green lentils)

9)remove bay leaves and add vinegar.
