A basic lentil & sausage stew. As written, it is very mild, stick-to-your-ribs type comfort food. Very adaptable and flexible dish, throw in whatever veggies and spices suit your fancy. I never make it the same twice!
16 oz green lentils, rinsed well
2 lbs kielbasa, cut in 1/2 inch slices
3 stalks celery, sliced
3 carrots, sliced
14-oz can beef broth
3 cups water
salt & pepper to taste
Throw everything in the crockpot, cook for 8 hours. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top and serve with sourdough rolls. Leftovers freeze well.
Suggested additions/alterations: portobello mushrooms, apples, yams, red potatoes, water chestnuts, jicama, zucchini, yellow squash, cherry tomatos, onion, baby spinach, minced garlic, cumin, oregano, thyme, basil, dill, mint, lemon zest.... you get the picture.
