Lentil and Ham Soup
10min
Happy Tuesday, Soupers! It’s been a wet day here in Lausanne. After a really long day of studying, nothing hit the spot better than this leftover lentil and ham soup! Goodness, it was satisfying and it’s “souper” quick and easy to make. Once you add all of your ingredients, just cook on low and you’ll get the most amazing flavors!
