Sausage and Lentil Soup
"I found this recipe on another sight in October 2012, it was posted by Tammy Dalton.I have made this and found it to be pretty good.This was the description posted by Tammy,"I found this recipe at The Joy of Soup website. It is very similar to Carrabba's Sausage and Lentil soup. It was so good I just had to share. I put the veggies all in the food processor and diced the fine. Everything was about the size of the lentil."Now I did make a few changes and I will put my changes at the end of the original ingredients. "Keep Smiling :) ""
