About Lentil soup with carrots
Lentil soup with carrots is a hearty and nutritious dish that originates from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, though it is enjoyed globally. This wholesome soup typically combines protein-packed lentils, tender carrots, onions, celery, garlic, and flavorful spices like cumin or paprika. Some recipes may also include tomatoes, herbs, or a drizzle of olive oil for added richness. Lentils, the star ingredient, are an excellent source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential minerals like iron and folate, making the soup a great choice for energy and digestive health. Carrots contribute natural sweetness and are rich in beta-carotene, supporting eye health and immunity. This soup is often low in fat, especially if made without added oils or cream, making it ideal for heart-friendly diets. However, sodium levels can vary depending on the recipe, so opting for low-sodium broth or seasoning is a healthier choice.
