This is a very tasty, simple red lentil soup recipe. I made the recipe with no modifications and found that the flavor developed after I let it sit for a day or so. The soup did thicken up quite a bit, so I've had to add some water when heating up leftovers.

This was a pretty simple lentil soup - made even easier by cooking the lentils in the pressure cooker. I substituted garden swiss chard for the spinach, and a red onion for the yellow - these substitutions seemed minor in the final product.
I found I needed to punch it up a bit with extra cumin, salt, and pepper. Also I added the lemon juice, tasted for flavor, about 15 minutes before serving. However, something happened in those 15 minutes to diminish the lemon flavor. Luckily I tasted right before serving, and added another ~ 1 1/2 T.
