Tip : If you have leftover cooked poultry, this soup is a great way to enjoy them in a different way! If you do not have cooked poultry on hand, it is possible to use small pieces of raw poultry, added to the boiling broth in step 3. You then wait until the poultry is cooked before adding the oats and lentils. Along the same lines, if you love meatballs, replace the poultry with your favorite meatballs which can also be cooked in the broth in step 3. You can also keep the soup vegetarian by adding more legumes .
