Gluten-free chicken & red lentil soup (IC/PBS) - Certified Thermomix person

As part of my diet, I recently made red lentil flour, but I rarely use it as I prefer other gluten-free floors such as my favorite, the one and only one; Chickpea flour. Anyway, I tried flatbreads, pancakes, cookies, etc. And as a conscient person who doesn't like to waste food, I decided to try something new and I believe this is the best use I can give to red lentil flour. So, for dinner, I tried a quick creamy soup that I did enjoy...I enjoyed it so much that I made it again for breakfast today :D
