Delicious crock pot lentil soup recipe!

I recently made this with some changes and it was awesome and so simple!!

Ingredients:

2 cups dried lentils
8 cups water
1 1/2 tbsp. crumbled bacon or bacon bits
1/2 c. chopped onion
1/2 c. chopped celery
1/4 c. chopped carrot
3 tbsp. snipped parsley
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 tsp. dried leaf oregano
1 can (14.5 ounces) tomatoes
2 tbsp. wine vinegar
Preparation:

Rinse lentils; place in cooker. Add 8 cups water and remaining ingredients except tomatoes and vinegar. Cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours. Add tomatoes and vinegar. Turn to HIGH and cook 15 minutes longer, until hot.

OK, changes I made were: instead of bacon I put a locatelli cheese rind in- or you could use grated cheese. I also added 2 bay leaves and some dried thyme. I used tomato sauce, not tomatoes, I grated the carrot and used a bunch of the leaves from the celery. it was so good- especially over macaroni with a little more grated cheese!Chat Icon

Ugh I have no ideas which ones I used! I know it does make a difference though because my friend made it and sàid no matter how long it cooked they were hard. Mine were nice a mooshy ( the way I like it).

Re: Delicious crock pot lentil soup recipe!

i made this and OMG so delicious. only thing i changed- was i added more water.
i added about 5 or 6 more cups.. it didnt take away from flavor.

At end i also made some ditalini and added it to the soup for some pasta.

DELICIOUS

you know what, i didnt.. I am trying to keep my meals as low salt as possible.. I'm pregnant and everything I eat swells me up big time.. This was VERY filling and didnt swell me.. I compensated with more celery and carrot.
I cant wait to eat this again for lunch tomorrow!
