I found this recipe when joining a crockpot recipe group on yahoo. Have not made this yet but it sounds very good especially with the addition of the spinach. A great idea for those cold winter days!
Ingredients:
3 cups ham, diced
2 cups dried lentils
2 cups carrots, diced
2 cups celery, diced
1 cup onion, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
4 cups water
2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (6 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
lemon slice, garnish
Directions:
1. In a 3 1/2-quart or larger crock pot mix all the ingredients together, except the spinach and lemon juice.
2. Cover pot and cook on high for 4 to 5 hours or low for 7 to 9 hours or until lentils are tender.
3. Add spinach and stir, cover and cook 5 minutes or until tender.
4. Stir in lemon juice, mix well, and serve.
