As usual, Rachel's recipe didn't disappoint! I made the recipe as written, except I used brown lentils. The flavor and texture was superb. The lemon zest gives it just the right zing, so don't leave it out.

I really enjoyed this stoup. The mushrooms, lentils and spinach really worked well together, and I felt like it was good for me. Adding buttery pita bread helped temper some of that good-for-me feeling though. Mmmm...butter.... Make sure you check the lentils for doneness. I needed another 10 minutes of simmering time to get them tender enough. The appearance of the stoup is a bit weird (hence the 4, not 5-star rating. The french lentils give the liquid a somewhat off-putting lavatorious shade of green. But, really, it is "delish." I have to admit, that, yes, I did change the recipe a little bit. Wouldn't be a proper review without the reviewer messing with the recipe, now would it? I didn't have sherry, so I used chardonnay (with plenty for the chef as well, added about a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice instead of zest and added about a teaspoon of Cholula hot sauce (provided a really nice zing. I liked it. I'll make it again. Maybe add a little Gruyere. Mmmm...cheese....

It wasn't bad, but just seemed like it was missing something. Won't make it again but if someone else did, I'd have some.
