LENTIL SOUP EXPRESS
I have had this recipe in my recipe box forever. It is such a quick and easy lentil soup recipe that is thick and hearty, not watery. Sometimes, instead of the parsley, I put in spinach and it wilts down and tastes great!!!

PRESSURE COOKER LENTIL SOUP
This is a delicious, easy, and, most importantly, FAST way to make a hearty, nutritious, stick-to-ribs soup. As with most bean soups, a good broth is they key to flavor, so use your own homemade, or a good quality brand that is sold a carton, not canned! I like Pacific Foods mushroom broth for a good, meaty flavor. If you like spinach and appreciate an extra kick of iron, pick up a bag of prewashed baby spinach, or else buy regular spinach and clean and stem it while the soup cooks.
