Ingredients

  • 1/2 c. lentils rinsed
  • 1/2 c. navy beans rinsed
  • 2 c. minced onion
  • 2 c. celery coarsely minced
  • 5 x carrots scrubbed and chunked into 1-inch pcs
  • 1/4 c. brown sugar
  • 1 c. barley
  • 1/2 tsp thyme minced
  • 1 tsp chopped garlic
  • 2 x bay leaves
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 c. cooking wine red
  • 1 quart low sodium vegetable juice V8
  • 2 c. water

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a Crockpot and cook for 8-10 hrs on medium or possibly low heat, or possibly 4-5 hrs on high heat.
  2. Remove bay leaves before serving.
  3. Note: The flavor of this stew improves with time. For best results, prepare stew one to three days before serving.
  4. Also, if added salt is desired, add in salt at the end of cooking time-adding salt too soon can toughen the seed coats on the lentils.
  5. MY VERSION [Karen Ferner]:(I boil the beans for 15 min and then add in everything else. I do it on top of the stove and cook for 2 hrs. The beans were still hard when I cooked it in the crock pot, yuch!)
