Steak and Potato Lentil Soup is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Soup Swappers. We post monthly on the third Saturday with recipes for soups following select themes. This month’s theme is for lentil soups. Many types can be made that will quickly become old favorites.

I decided to create some lentil soup with fridge leftovers including cold steak and cold baked potatoes. I love steak and potato dinners but it does take quite an appetite to finish. And of course I am going to repurpose the extras.
Besides being easy to prep, utilizing leftover jacket potatoes is healthy, lowering the glycemic load to avoid blood sugar spikes and creating better digestion. That’s plus enough for me right there to always keep a few extra potatoes in the oven when cooking some up.
