Lentil and Kale Soup

Lentil and Kale Soup | Homan at Home

Welcome to the Homans eat healthy part 2! This lentil and kale soup is our latest dinner discovery and we cannot get enough. This is our adaptation of the version that appears in the Get Shredded meal plan that comes with the Asylum workouts. We made a pact to try every recipe in the diet, even the ones that sound kinda icky. This lentil and kale soup was one of the last recipes we tried because we kept putting eating this off. 

It honestly just didn’t sound that good, but we were on week 4 and couldn’t tiptoe around it anymore, so I put it on the family meal schedule and bought the ingredients. No one was excited. But, as I’m sure you’ve guessed, it turned out surprisingly tasty! I’ve tweaked it and made some changes to the original recipe so that it fits the flavor profile my family likes better (and gets rid of the celery. What even is the point of celery?) Now, this is a meal I look forward to and even like enough to share with you 🙂

Do NOT put the kale in before you serve the soup. It will get really, really slimy really, really fast!
