Delicious! I followed the recipe and it turned out great. A friend of mine will make if using splenda instead of sugar and I really look forward to tasting her as well. For those having diabetis, it could turn out great as well.

This soup is very rich and healthy! I used 5 Italian turkey sausage links and added black pepper and red pepper powder. It gave it a hint if spicyness. I also added one can of diced tomatoes with no salt added and with garlic, oregano and basil. Since the recipe as is is very high in sodium per serving, I boiled the lentils and the garbanzo beans myself in water with no salt. I added one cube of chicken bouillon and it turned out perfect and even healthier. The barley helps to reduce cholesterol and by boiling the beans myself, it was low in sodium too. Perfect! Also, one tip: don't add the parsley until you are ready to turn off the heat. Parsley is a great antioxidant; however, if you boil it, it loses all properties. The same for the spinach.

I gave this dish 5 stars because it really tastes great. However, I did make a slight change: instead of frying the eggplant and the zucchini, I grilled them. And since I ended up with not enough eggplant and zucchini slices to actually have 3 layers, I suggest using one more eggplant and one more zucchini. Other than that, great recipe!
