When the weather cools off, it’s guaranteed that we’ll be eating soup 2-3 times a week. No better way to balance the cool, rainy days out here in Oregon.

What’s even better than soup is soup that’s made in the crockpot!!! I’m a morning person so if I can throw it in first thing and come home later to a delicious meal all ready and waiting, I”M IN!

So here’s a favorite that falls into that category. It has it all- fresh veggies, lentils AND beans and lots of yummy spices.

We made ours with fresh veggies from the garden and topped it off with cashew sour cream and pickled hot peppers (there’s NO WAY those will make it all through the winter..).

It’s easy and delicious and I’m guessing will get us through many a rainy day at the Blue Barn.

So make yourself a batch, grab yourself a bowl, and feel good about one more compassionate choice…

Enjoy!!!

With Gratitude,
