I am making this right now and it seems like there wont be enough liquid?? I am 4 hours into the cooking time, should I put more broth or is it supposed to be a thick soup?
Reply
If you like a soupier soup, you can add more water or broth. Lentil soup tends to be a a thick soup, but more liquid wouldn’t hurt anything if that is your taste 🙂
Reply
Did you end up putting more liquid into the soup? I have the same issue… halfway through and it looks like there’s NO liquid in my crockpot. Help!

I actually used both green and red 🙂 I think any lentil would work out great!
