Italian Lentil Soup l The cheap & Easy One Pot Recipe

Lentil soup is a classic thick, hearty vegetarian soup. It’s simple, easy to make, and healthy too. When it comes to making it there is not really one set recipe.
In this recipe I used spinach which gives it colour. Mirepoix vegetables (carrot, celery, onion) make it a good budget friendly option.

Also it’s made using only one saucepan, so it saves on the washing up.

If you don’t have dried oregano, you could always use fresh or any dried herbs you have to hand. If you don’t want to use vegetable stock you could always replace it with water. After all this is your recipe.

So if you’re ever stuck wondering what to cook with leftover vegetables now you know what to do 🙂
