This is the most hearty and wholesome soup out there. Lentils full of protein and fiberous vegetables cooked together with barley makes this such a complete meal that is so healthy and filling. (To all the vegetarians and vegans out there, this one’s for you.) Cozy up this winter with this delicous lentil vegetable soup.
In six quart pot, sauté onions in margarine until lightly golden. Add vegetables, and lentils and cook over very low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add water, bring to a boil, mixing well. Add barley and all spices. Cook over medium-low heat for one and a half to two hours.
Notes:
This soup freezes well

Family favorite. This soup is easily modified. I add parsnip & mushrooms. I make it partially with water & also with vegetable and/or chicken broth. Sometimes I add beef bones.
Yum! I’m sure the beef bones add a delicious flavor!
