Lentil Soup  

Hello Hello Hello

Been a long time since I last posted a Recipe for all of you. A big Sorry for this but the sweltering Mumbai Summer heat made me sick with having allergies which made me very tired but now I am all Fit & Fine. Then there was my Hubby’s 50th Birthday of which I was so excited. Hope you guys saw the cake I made for him on my Instagram. So that’s what kept me from posting in a long while.

Since all of us have been holidaying in Summer, we need to eat Healthy for sometime before the Festival Season starts.

SOUPS are my favourite Healthy Nutritious food when I want to go easy on my diet. But we don’t need to have tasteless soups, they can be made so delicious with a little twist here & there. Here We make Healthy Lentil Soup today.
