I made this last night and my roommate and I both love it! I used a cup of beef broth to replace a cup of vegetable juice. and it still tastes good :D Super simple too

This was delicious. I let most of the liquid boil out because I was in the mood for a stew more than a soup. Great recipe! I will definitely be making this often during the cold winter months.

EXCELLENT! I have been looking for tasty, healthy, easy, and cheap meals. This is IT. I didn't have all the veggie juice, so I subbed 300 mL of bouillon for some of the juice. also, I added 125g of tofu and other fridge leftovers. Serve it with the Excellent and Healthy cornbread on this site.

This is an excellent soup, although I wish I had remembered the advice of some of the reviewers who wrote that you should use less water and spicy V-8. But it was good, and next time it'll be better.

This was amazing! My husband is very hard to please and he ate it for 3 days. I followed Previous advice and used spicy v8, cayenne, etc...

My family loves this one. I did beef broth rather than the water and bullion and I added 4 cloves of chopped garlic. I also added some Tabasco like another person suggested. I make this every other week now. It is great.

Good basic lentil soup recipe. I didnt put beef or mushrooms in it, and used 2 8 oz cans of tomato sauce + 3 cans water instead of V8. Added a bay leaf and thyme. Nice,hearty yet simple soup.

Mmm...so good. Like many others, I made some changes. I used both regular V8 and Spicy (basically what I had in the fridge). I also used beef stock instead of bouillon/water. I doubled the onion and added two cloves of garlic. I also doubled the mushrooms (though the canned doesn't do much for me). I added some cabbage because I had it on hand, but it doesn't add anything to the soup. Without the garlic and extra onion, I think it would have been a little bland.

This soup was really good. It makes a lot of soup!! I added ground turkey and used spicy V-8. I also added a can of green beans at the end. It was very easy and very filling.

Just made this and ate it for lunch and there is lots left but that's a good thing since I loved it and can't wait to eat it again tomorrow. I'm sure it will freeze well too so I'll put some in individual containers for later. I used all the ingredients listed but just eyeballed them. I added garlic, thyme and oregano for extra flavour. So good.

Really nice, healthy soup that was simple to throw together for an easy family meal (just don't forget to factor in the cooking time!) I didn't give it five stars because it does seem to be missing *something*...just can't put my finger on it. I added a touch of cayenne pepper tonight, which definitely helped. Next time I'll try with the spicy V8, like others suggested. Definitely will try again!

I also used beef broth instead of water and bouillon cubes. It turned out really nice. Next time I'll add some more veggies, maybe peas and corn or green beans.

I give this recipe five stars because I used it as a guide when I decided -last minute- to make a lentil soup with what I had on hand. I didn't use beef, I used extra mushrooms (fresh) and a portabella mushroom, and tomato sauce and water for the juice, added some chopped bell pepper, a clove of garlic, onion powder, and a pinch of chili powder for a kick. It turned out GREAT! I couldn't have done it without this recipe to go by. Thanks for the post!

I've never had lentils and wanted to try them. My very picky 14 year old son liked it. I like this even better than my usual chili recipe. I did use the spicy V-8 and added cumin and chili powder. About 1 tsp each and a few dashes of Tabasco because I like a spicy soup. One thing that my son didn't notice was the 2 cups of raw spinach I chopped and added. It was very good.

I thought this was a lovely soup. Even my two year old cleaned his bowl! I didn't have six cups of tomato vegetable juice so I ended up using 2 cups vegetable juice, 2 cups canned diced tomato and 2 more cups water. I also added a little more than just a dash of W/sauce. I will make this again - soon. It's also very good the next day!
