Goodbye 2025... Hello, 2026!

Lentejas Bring Good Luck!

In many cultures, Lentejas (Lentil Soup) are considered good luck. They are made on the first day of the New Year to help usher in a year of prosperity and luck. We wanted to share with you our Lentil Soup recipe that has a little bit of a sweet twist.
