When Ramadan is coming, and I am thinking about preparing healthy, warm, and comfort food for iftar, the first thing that comes to my mind is this lentil soup. 

Warm and hearty, it would be very nice for iftar. Whether when it is summer or winter it is indispensable for iftar menus with its soft taste. This lentil soup is very easy to accompany with any other menu, meat or chicken. 

It is also a soup that is practical and quick to prepare.

Autumn peak here.... even some area in southeast Turkey already snowy... West area like mine just counting the day because after "lodos"/ southwest hard windy few days ago temperature drops so fast..  
And comfort food always gets along for these days.... It warm you up and feel light for your stomach. Just like this lentil soup. I enrich lentil with carrot and potato to twist the flavor of this soup.
