Chicken Lentil Soup

Warm-up as the weather cools down this season with my personal take on Lentil Soup. In particular, Chicken, Seaweed, and Lentil Soup is my fusion remix of classic lentil soup.  This is a relatively quick-to-make soup recipe, yielding a tasty seaweed and chicken mix of flavor.

Just as it has for my own family, this dish will fit perfectly into your Autumn dinners, as a healthy and filling option. Of course, you can make this a lighter dish of your own by withholding the chicken and keeping the seaweed element for its flavorful twist. Don’t forget to let me know how this recipe turned out for you!
