Lentil Vegetable Soup

Healthy and delicious; recipe makes enough for a family of four to get two meals out of it. Recipe calls for chicken stock but substitution of vegetable stock makes this a great main dish soup for vegetarians.

Perfectly cooked lentils as they were covered with boiling water and allowed to soak for 15 minutes first (no sawdust-like insides). A made a full recipe and everything fit into my largest stock pot except for all of that chicken stock. I love thick soups, so that was not a problem. I agree with aj12475 that it is healthy, delicious, and could easily be made vegetarian with a different stock. The two leeks seem to be the secret ingredient here that makes this lentil soup above the ordinary.
