I used a recipe on Christmas that was good for a soup similar to this, however, I needed something that would translate to the crock-pot and still be yummy. I threw this together yesterday and it was EXCELLENT!
1 white onion
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 bunch celery
5 large carrots
2-3 Ham hocks or for a healthier version... 1lb Spicy Italian Chicken Sausage (links)
1 c. Red Lentils
1 c. Green Lentils
6-8 c. Low Sodium Organic Chicken broth
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/2 tsp Chinese all spice
1 tsp. ground sage
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. dried basil
3 bay leaves
Chop Veggies. Toss all ingredients in crock-pot, stir to combine. Cook on high or med-high for 4-6 hours. Remove meat, chop up and return to stew. Serve Hot! :)
I just had the left overs for lunch and I still think it was awesome!
