Lentils
may not be much to look at but they sure do make a satisfying stew!
Enter John and Mary McDougall’s Lentil Vegetable Soup from The
McDougall Program for Maximum Weight Loss—deceptively delicious
fare for such a down-to-earth recipe. Cooked last Saturday
afternoon, the only thing I added was a little salt to taste, as none
was referenced. I even had the fresh parsley garnish on hand
courtesy of my own little herb garden! Cool!
I can’t say enough good about Dr. McDougall’s book. It's brimming with helpful information about why we put on the pounds (no, you’re not eating too much) and how to release the weight that plagues you permanently (and no, you never have to count calories!) Not only is the concept of weight loss succinctly (and humorously) explained but it is also demonstrated practically via lovely, tasty recipes such as this one. Maybe the path to a fit and trim body isn’t as arduous as once thought...

The
paperback pictured belongs to the Salt Lake County library and is
obviously well loved. As for myself this is probably the third time
I have checked it out from the system since first discovering it last
summer. Maybe it’s time to break down and get my own copy?! In
the meantime, I can always peruse the doctor's website
www.drmcdougall.com for additional recipes, educational videos on
every topic imaginable, and, (my favorite,) real success stories from
regular people who found their health again simply by eating right.
Now it's your turn! Go treat yourself to a warm bowl of lentil vegetable soup. Enjoy!
