Sausage and Lentil Soup is one of my very favorite dishes that exist on Carrabba’s menu! I am just like you, I love to go out to eat to try new foods so I can try them at home. My family first became acquainted with Carrabba’s when I lived in Las Vegas. It’s such a great establishment. Whenever we go there, I literally try a ton of their menu. Soup, a side salad, entree and of course one of their amazing desserts.
What I love about this recipe, is it a one pot meal. Just use a dutch oven to brown the meat. This recipe is perfect for freezing, so feel free to make enough and freeze half so you can enjoy this recipe two times for the effort of just one meal.
