This is a wonderful, easy recipe for a dinner soup on a cold winter night served with a salad or even just crusty French bread. I had to make some substitutions since I discovered I had no lentils, just barley so barley it was. Also only had one can of whole, peeled tomatoes so in they went. And to add to my ineptitude I didn't start making it until 3:30 so the crock pot was out of the question, and I had to just let it simmer for 2 hours. Nonetheless, my husband had 3 servings! A definite winner! Nice and thick - more like stew than soup and with great flavor. I also added a little salt and pepper to taste but I can't wait to make it the right way next time.
