Lentil and Pasta Soup

Tender brown lentils and small pasta shapes combine beautifully to make this rustic vegetarian dish that is bursting with flavour and goodness. Brown lentils are suitable for this recipe because they retain their shape after cooking, and when combined with pasta they give a delicious al dente ‘bite’ to the soup.

This dish makes a hearty and warming winter meal, and goes especially well with chunks of fresh Granary or crusty Italian bread.
