Protein Boosters for Lentil Soup:

• Shredded Chicken… You can add shredded chicken to this recipe in several ways. First, you can cook a chicken breast (or 2) in the soup while it cooks, remove and shred then add back. Second, you can add leftover shredded chicken in the last 10 minutes of cook time. And finally you can heat up some leftover chicken and add it to a topping bar, so just the non vegans can add it in.
• Pulled Pork… Just like the shredded chicken, you can add leftover pulled pork into the crockpot for the last 10 minutes of cooking. Or reheat shredded pork and add it to the topping bar.
• Turkey or Chicken Sausage… Finally, you can cook 1-3 turkey or sausages either in the soup (then remove crumble and add back in) or separately and add it to the topping bar for the non vegans in your life.
