Expert Tips

Pair this thick and meaty soup with a crisp green salad tossed with orange segments and a tangy orange vinaigrette.

For a touch of color, stir chopped fresh tomato into the soup with the cooked ham and spinach in step 3.

Lentils come in many colors, including brown, red and yellow. The most common variety is brown lentils, which you will find in most supermarkets.
