This is the one I make all the time.
Lentil Soup
1 1 lb bag lentils washed
1 cup chopped each of the following
carrots
onion
celery
green pepper
4 cups water
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried parsley (or 1 tbsp fresh if you have it)
Put eveything in a large pot, bring to boil. reduce heat to me/low simmer about 1 1/2- hours. Add water if it becomes to thick.
After putting the soup in a bowl I top it with cheese and put it under the broiler to melt the cheese. YUMMMMMOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have never done this as I want it meatless but you could add chopped hot dogs to the soup the last 20 minutes of cooking.
