Lentil Barley Soup...

I always forget how good this soup tastes!

Lentil Barley Soup
a recipe from Jennifer Raymond

1 pound lentils
3/4 cup barley
8 cups water
1 large onion, chopped
2 carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoon salt

Place all ingredients, except for salt, into a large kettle and bring to a simmer.

Cover and cook for one hour, stirring occasionally, until lentils and barley are tender.

Add salt to taste.

Notes:
It can get pretty thick, just add water if you need to.
We add salt at the table.
