Found this quote on the back of an Italian lentil soup mix years ago... Soup does seven things: It appeases your hunger, slakes your thirst,fills your stomach, cleans your teeth, makes you sleep, helps you digest and puts color in your cheeks. Well.... it might! =) Hope you enjoy this soup. This recipe freezes well,also.
