Mushroom heaven. This is a great light mushroom soup. I used about half a 19 ounce can of lentils ( had no dry) and tossed them in about halfway through the cooking. I used one large Portabella and the rest were large button mushrooms and fresh rosemary instead of dry. I used beef broth and just a splash of red cooking wine LOL Very tasty soup Thanks for posting Made for My 3 chefs fall 2008

I did everything the recipe said and it came out wonderful! It's easy, it doesn't take too much time, and it's very filling. Good for vegetarians, as it has lentils and mushrooms. By the way, rosemary and bay leaf did a great job, though mine rosemary wasn't so fresh. Overall, it's just an excellent recipe!<br/><br/>P.S. it was very delicious!

<p>I love food.com! It is so fascinating to sample the many recipes that people from all over the world submit. It is a happy place to spend some time. Making Italian food(especially lasagna) and all sorts of salads are a few of the things I enjoy making. Salmon is one of my favorites and I have collected a lot of new recipes to try on food.com. It has been fun to make a collection of different catergories of foods to try. I have a gluten sensitivity and enjoy trying new recipes that are gluten-free. I don't really have a favorite cookbook, but I do love collecting recipes of all different kinds. Dabbling in the art of making raw foods is a new area I have been experimenting in. I am thankful to have found this site under the original name of RecipeZaar. It helps me to be a better chef when I am able to borrow other recipes from my fellow friends on the Zaar. It is also a lot of fun to meet people from all over the world who are such great cooks! It is my goal to be a healthy individual and I have found many new recipes that help me on here. I also desire to honor the Lord Jesus, sharing his love with others. We have 8 children. I now home school 2 children. Six of our children have already graduated from our home school. Three of our children have graduated from college. We all enjoy cooking and/ or eating. Keep the great ideas and recipes coming!</p>
