That $3 bag of lentils beat my $8 soup kit
I grabbed a fancy lentil soup kit at the farmers market last weekend and it was bland, then I made a basic pot with a 1 pound bag from the dollar store, same spices and time, and it had way more flavor. The kit's pre-measured spice packet just tasted like salt, while my own cumin and garlic powder did the real work. Has anyone else found that the plain version of an ingredient beats the expensive prepared one, and what's your go-to base for building a cheap soup from scratch?
