Green Lentil Meatball Soup

Hello Dear Friends,

This soup is a main soup from head to toe :) It was very difficult to make my daughter eat legumes (except chickpeas). I decided to try something with meatballs and plenty of legumes, in which I added bulgur and green lentils. Finally, a soup like highland soup with meatballs and legumes came out, which my daughter enjoyed very much.

When I knead meatballs, I reserve some at the end, add rice and prepare balls and put them in the freezer. Thus, my work becomes very, very practical. You can also intensify the consistency of the soup by adding some flour instead of bulgur.
