Easy Crockpot Vegetable Lentil Soup Recipe
Lentil Soup starts to sound extra delicious to me as soon as the fall season approaches. The absolute best way to make lentil soup is in the slow cooker. This Easy Crockpot Vegetable Lentil Soup Recipe has been a family favorite ever since Big D was a baby. The soft veggies were perfect finger foods for her little fingers. Ahhh the memories 🙂
Now that my girls are getting older, they ask for this soup all the time. And I am MORE than happy to make this veggie packed soup for them.

I made a variation of your stew and loved it. I posted my adaptation on my site here:

Please post more recipes like this one! Do you have other bean soups or a split pea soup to share? I am on a gluten free diet and am always looking for options. Meat is okay if it’s in a soup or stew – just not noodles.
This was delicious! The only modification I made was I used vegetarian broth.. it was flavorful and filling. A great meal, and another great option for my vegetarian teen! Thank you!
Worst lentil soup I’ve ever had.
I’m sorry it wasn’t to your liking Casey. We sure do love it around here 🙂
I’ll say that this is not a good recipe. 4-6 cloves of garlic and the onion made the whole house stink to high heaven. Put it outside to finish cooking. As for your breath don’t plan on being in the same room with anyone.
Onion and garlic are so good for you! Sorry you don’t like the taste of those two things, they are a main ingredients for this recipe 🙂
