Lentil Rice Soup

By Hklbrries

This soup is great for a crock pot. Put everything in the pot in the morning. Set it on low and let it cook all day while you’re busy doing something else.

Ingredients

• 2 quarts vegetable stock
• 1 cup dry lentils, washed
• 1 cup rice
• 1 (25 oz) can crushed tomatoes
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 potato, chopped
• 2 stalks celery, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tsp mixed Italian seasonings
• 2 tbsp dried parsley flakes
• 1/4 tsp pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Combine all ingredients in a large stockpot and bring to a boil. Cover the pan and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until rice and lentils are tender, approximately 45 minutes. This makes a thick soup, which can be thinned, if desired, with additional stock. Season to taste.
