Sautéed leeks and onions are combined with carrots, celery, crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, and red split lentils (which cook quickly!) to produce a hearty, thick lentil soup that is naturally gluten-free, nutritious, and filling. Moroccan Red Lentil Soup is a comforting soup recipe. The warm, rich spices of cinnamon, coriander, cumin, paprika and tumeric mix together perfectly to create a flavorful soup.
