Lentil And Barley Recipes

There is nothing more satisfying than a warm hearty and delicious soup when it's cold outside. This soup is versatile (add whatever veggies you have lying around), easy and nutritious. Adding both barley and lentils makes this more nutritionally complete for the veggies out there, but feel free to just use one or the other if you'd prefer. And the servings are large! If you're having this on the side, you'll get a lot more servings than mentioned! (also it freezes really well too! so make a batch and freeze in single-serve tupperware for easy lunches/dinners!)

We like eating this at passover but also just any time.

This soup is delicious all year round. It freezes well for quick, hearty meals when you're too busy to cook.

I found this recipe (called Barley & Lentil Soup)on the Campbell's Kitchen website and modified it by adding extra vegetables

This is a wonderfully healthy soup! It is a good healthy hearty soup that holds up well for the next day. A nice blend of rich flavors and yet so simple to make.

Suggestions for changes and additions from are: Double the tomatoes. It is also good with a spicy sausage, like turkey Andouille. Add more garlic and celery. Instead of Swiss chard, use collard greens. Add chipotle chili powder and/or a bit of liquid smoke and some cayenne to taste. It's wonderfully deep in flavor. Plus, a touch of sea salt when serving really brings out the flavors. Add a spicy Mexican tomato sauce call Chili el Pato from the Mexican food section of the grocery store for a little zing. Try sautéing the onions in some red pepper flakes for a little more depth of flavor.

I created this soup one day because a friend of mine had given me a bunch of canned vegetables that I knew my husband wouldn't touch otherwise.

Feel free to add any other vegetables you have on hand, as well as give this a kick with your favorite seasonings or by adding a spicy pepper or two!

not strictly vegetarian, but you could substitute vegetable broth

A twist on the usual stuffed peppers. This was my first time making this without meat, so any suggestions on how to perfect this recipe would be appreciated!

Healthy & totally delicious!!
