Mmmm Lentil Soup~

"Karen Carter of Temecula" yep...I made the local paper. Not once but twice in the last month. And what am I famous for now? My obsession for lentil soup. I grew up on Lentil soup and lately I have been craving it big time! It is definitely one of those things that you either like or don't. Steve thinks they kinda taste like popcorn hulls. But I love it, its super healthy and always satisfying. Our local Italian deli had the BEST soup on Tuesdays. It was such a treat for lunch, but they went out of business.Turns out my dear friend Casey is related to the Campini's and she is trying to snag it for me.But you know those Italian soup nazi's (Casey I am willing to buy you Starbucks for a week to get that recipe and if you knew how often she goes to Starbucks that could be BIG money)But not knowing if she would be able to find it I have been on the hunt for the recipe every since. So my friend Kim who also loved it suggested we (meaning me )write to the paper and ask if they can get the recipe for us. So they listed my question and then last week they listed a reply recipe. Not from the owners but from another reader who has a similar recipe. So of course I autographed a copy of the newspaper for Kim to keep and I am going to try the recipe tomorrow. I first called my Thia Mary and asked her if she things it sounds like a good one. (The Greeks are very lentil savvy) But just thinking and talking about lentils made me so hungry for them. So Chad and I spilt a can of Progresso. Not home made but mmm mmm good. So if you have have any great recipes for lentil soup...send them along. If my recipe turns out fabulous I'll let you know so you can stop by for some. BYOB (bring your own bowl)
