Project 365 9.30


Barley Lentil {Vegetarian} Stew

1/4 cup margarine
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped onion
6 cups water
3/4 cup lentils
1 liter canned tomatoes
3/4 cup pearl barley
2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 cup shredded carrots

Saute the butter, celery and onion in a large pan. Add the water and lentils, cook for 20 minutes, then add the tomatoes, barley & spices. Simmer 45-60 minutes (until lentils are tender). Then add the carrots. Cook for 5 minutes and serve!

This nice warm stew is perfect for a cold fall day! My friend Jenny gave us this recipe a few years ago and it's one of our faves, we make it often.
