Slow cooker spicy lentil and tomato soup
(1)
7 hours 15 min
A lovely hearty, thick soup for cold winter days. Absolutely no fat, so you can have a mug of this soup any time of the day - I used this soup when I was detoxing for a week and never felt hungry. I made double the amount and it was enough for the weeks detox.
