LENTIL-VEGGIE SOUP (CROCK POT)
This soup is easy to put together with basic food items that most of us have around. I found the recipe in Better Homes and Gardens Biggest Book of Slow Cooker Recipes, and I did some adjustments with the vegetables and herbs used. I was surprised at how good this very simple soup turned out.

CROCK POT LENTIL VEGETABLE BARLEY SOUP RECIPE - (4.2/5)
Provided by DreiFromBK
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- As with all crock pot recipes, this is a breeze to put together. Dice and layer all the veggies, and top with the grains, liquids and the spices (except the basil). The order I used was: onions and bell peppers, squash and carrots, lentils, peas, and barley, diced tomatoes and broth, salt, pepper, sugar, and finally the extra water. Set the crock pot on low for eight hours or on high for four hours. The lentils, peas, and barley will absorb a lot of water, so you may need to add even more extra (unless you like a nice thick soup like I do-then you will be very pleased when you arrive home from class!). Top with a sprinkle of basil and some pepper and enjoy!

CROCK POT SPLIT PEA AND LENTIL SOUP
For a truly vegetarian soup, substitute vegetable bouillon for the chicken soup base. This recipe almost overflowed my 4-quart crockpot, you might want to halve the ingredients. I cooked it on high for the entire 8 hours because it was so full, but if you halve it, cooking it on low for the same amount of time will work fine.

Steps:
- 1. Place 1 bag of lentils (about 2 cups) in your crock pot with the 4 cups of chicken broth and 4 cups of water.
- 2. Cut up onion, celery and carrots and mince fine in a food processor or by hand. Saute the veggies in a large frying pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil until soft. Add them to the crock pot.
- 3. Stir everything up and add the hamhock. Cook on low all day. (I put mine in at 7 in the morning and we didn't eat it until nearly 9 that night. It will be fine.)
- 4. After it has cooked between 6 and 8 hours take out the hamhock and get rid of the fat and bone. Chop up the meat and put it back in with the lentils. Add the salt and pepper to taste. I found 2 teaspoons of salt was just right but a saltier hamhock may mean you don't need to add as much salt.
- 5. Add another 1 to 2 cups of chicken broth or water to thin it back down to soup consistency at this point and allow to simmer a little longer. Serve it up, top it with sour cream and enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a variety of lentils: This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Brown and green lentils are popular choices, but you can also use red lentils for a creamier soup.
- Soak your lentils before cooking: This will help them to cook more evenly and quickly. If you don't have time to soak them, you can still cook them without soaking, but they will take a little longer.
- Use a flavorful broth: The broth is the base of your soup, so make sure it's packed with flavor. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even beef broth. If you're using canned broth, be sure to choose a low-sodium variety.
- Add plenty of vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, nutrients, and color to your soup. Feel free to add any vegetables you like, but some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and spinach.
- Season your soup to taste: Once your soup is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, garlic powder, or other spices.
Conclusion:
Crock-pot lentil soup is a delicious, hearty, and healthy meal that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover lentils. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and nutritious soup that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give crock-pot lentil soup a try.
