One of the best lentil soups I have made. Great flavor!

Made this last night and absolutely loved it. So yummy! Great flavors.

Super easy to make, and very very delicious. I thought to leave out the parmesan rind, but then decided to put it in, and it’s so good! I’m definitely making this again.

Absolutely delicious. I don’t generally eat leftovers but I ate this delicious soup 3 days in a row.

This Italian lentil soup brought me back to my childhood, as we have a very similar soup in Spain (Lentejas), but the addition of parmesan cheese, was a total game-changer! So so delicious, thank you for the recipe!
