Seeing it is a crockpot soup, I will add 1/4 cup of olive oil to a skillet and soften up the above veggies. Half way thru I added the minced garlic, plus black pepper to taste. Put the veggies in the crockpot and add 8 cups of hot water and turn the crockpot on high. Now the one cup of lentils have been soaking in hot water for about 40 minutes, Rinse them well in a strainer. Add them to the crokpot and give them a stir. A couple bullion cubes, I use the bulk kind, added about 3 tablespoons. Than add the seasoning to taste. Oregano, basil, and a couple bay leaves. When the lentils are soft, about 5 to 5.5 hours. or 1 hour on the stove, I will serve with about a teaspoon of red wine vinegar per bowl and some feta cheese. Will add more water to the crockpot if needed during the cooking time. RJ --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
