Looking for an easy meal for Meatless Mondays? This Lentil Vegetable Soup is one of our family favorites.
Oh, this weather. It's been 75 degrees some days and high 20s the others. We haven't really had a winter, and now our spring is the same. My meal plan is all over the place!
One way I've been soothing my cold bones on the wet, cold days is this delicious Lentil Vegetable Soup. I make a big batch over the weekend, and then it's in the fridge all week for an easy lunch.

I feel so healthy when I eat this soup! There's protein from the lentils and chickpeas. There's tons of healthy vegetables, and it's low in calories but still very filling. It's also a great Weight Watchers Freestyle recipe with zero points per serving!
It's easy to make using whatever vegetables you have in the fridge, just add as many of the ones you like or adapt if there are some you don't like. During the summer when we can more easily get fresh veggies from the farmers market I like to make this once in a while too on cooler days or nights. It's just so incredibly flavorful with delicious fresh veggies.
This Lentil Vegetable Soup lasts in the refrigerator 3-4 days. I haven't tried freezing it yet because it hasn't lasted that long. If you make a large batch and decide to freeze it my only concern would be the vegetables getting a bit mushy upon reheating them. I don't think the overall flavor would be compromised by freezing!
I like to sprinkle some shredded Parmesan cheese on top-it adds a little zing! If you are a cheese lover I'd definitely give that topping a try. Since the soup is so healthy to start with a little parmesan cheese isn't going to totally ruin your healthy choices.
Great news! If you're doing the Weight Watchers Freestyle Program (as I am), this soup is 0 points per serving! I only track it my app if I sprinkle cheese on top. Finding great zero point recipes for Weight Watchers is easier than ever thanks to the Freestyle program. With more than 200 zero point foods it's no wonder this easy lentil vegetable soup is perfectly suited for Weight Watchers!
