In the cafeteria at my summer job in college, they had this amazing lentil soup that my sister and I loved. It was so good that we would check to see if they had it even if we had packed a lunch that day. It was just so full of flavor and delicious.
I have tried countless recipes over the years trying to get anywhere near that flavor. I have tried crock pot lentils, lentil soup, Indian lentils, Morrocan lentils. I have tried red lentils and green lentils.
Nothing even came close. Until this recipe. It’s not exactly the same. It’s not a soup and it’s creamier, with the coconut milk. But this recipe for Crock Pot Lentils is seriously the best I’ve tried over the years!
There are quite a few spices that you might not have used before, but I only used the ones that I was able to find easily in a well stocked grocery store.
So if you love lentils, or if you’re a fan of curry and coconut milk things in general, you should definitely give this one a try! It does make quite a bit, which really works for me right now because I was able to freeze half of it so that we’ll be able to enjoy a delicious meal after this baby comes.

Sounds good but I've l read everything three times and I don't see the recipe. Am I missing something?

The recipe is at the bottom of the post. To make it easy for you I ha e a ‘jump to recipe’ button at the top of all the posts. That should help. :)
