   Can the leftovers be frozen? I've never used lentils before so wasn't sure…..

   This looks amazing and totally makes me want to run to the store and get ingredients to make today. I am working from home because one of my boys is home sick so its a very quiet day. Do you know if this freezes well (same question as Tanya)? My kids don't like lentils but this would be great to make and freeze so I can take it to work for lunches.

   Tonya – Yes, it freezes great! I usually add a little more chicken broth to thin it out a little. The croutons freeze well too!

   I love lentil soup and make it frequently. I’ve never tried it with smoked sausage though.. I will have to try that 🙂

   I found a similar recipe this fall and I’ve been making it often. I was looking for gluten-free recipes. The differences are these — add 1/2 c. brown rice and add 10 oz. chopped spinach (fresh or frozen). Also, I’ve heard that you should add the salt last b/c adding it earlier can make your lentils tough. Anyway, I love it! My version is hearty — more like a stew than a broth, but we love it that way!

   I made this last night and took it to our church dinner. I had 5 people ask for the recipe. It is a really great soup. I posted it on my FB page this morning. Thanks for sharing.

   Wow! The lentil soup is so yummy and has such great flavor! Everyone in our family liked it including my almost one year old. Thanks for the recipe!

   Does the type of lentil matter? I have red ones in my pantry

    One Tablespoon!!!!! of salt? Is that a mistake?
