Another great recipe from Diane Kirby that features a twist on a typical lentil soup recipe. This one features amber ale, and a little splash from the wine world, sherry. This lentil soup recipe has a lot of ingredients, but don't worry, it is an easy recipe you can use to practice cooking with beer. You can even prepare this lentil soup recipe a day or two in advance and finish it up when you want to serve it very quickly.
