    Excellent. I diced the carrots and zucchini and used chicken broth but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Made for my Nana's recovery from surgery and she loved it. Thanks for the keeper!

    Red Lentil, Zucchini & Couscous Soup,Don’t let the name turn you off! This soup has a nice thick consistency that is nice and flavorful. A perfect blend of vegetables, legumes and grains. I personally do not like the texture of couscous when eaten like rice or pasta yet I LOVE this soup! Leftovers freeze well. Recipe from “Meal Lean i Yum!”,Excellent. I diced the carrots and zucchini and used chicken broth but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Made for my Nana’s recovery from surgery and she loved it. Thanks for the keeper!,Great healthy soup. Added lemon juice, cilantro, and curry. used chicken broth too.
