This is a version of the classic Turkish lentil soup which is home cooking at its best. It is simple to make and very flavorful and nutritious. Just by adding a salad and crusty loaf of whole grain bread you make it a complete meal. By adding purple carrots also makes this a more healthier dish since purple carrots are rich in vitamin A and beta-carotene but are also rich in anthocyanins. Studies have found that these blue and purple pigments in purple carrots can improve memory, enhance vision, protect against heart attacks, act as anti-inflammatories, and even help control weight. Just perfect.
