With school starting again, nights getting cooler and pumpkin-scented everything appearing on the shelves, I couldn’t help myself–I went ahead and pulled the old’ crock-pot out and made a favorite, healthy, simple soup for my family. I am a big fan of the one-pot meals and one-pot crock-pot meals are even better!  They are fast, easy, use minimal ingredients and are always good for you. Today’s recipe is a super simple and delicious beef, vegetable and lentil soup. The recipe calls for carrots, onion, and celery, but really, anything goes with this little ditty. I happened to have some par-cooked potatoes hanging out in the fridge. I tossed those in and I would have added any other vegetables I have on hand, especially peas. You can go ahead and toss all of the ingredients in and get to slow cooking or you can brown your meat first for a richer end product. Here is my recipe for slow-cooked beef, vegetable, and lentil soup. As Rachel Ray would say, (and it would make me want to punch her in her face) “this soup is thicker than a soup, thinner than a stew, so why not call it a stoup?!” Happy slow-cooking! Enjoy!

Beef, Vegetable, and Lentil Soup 

1 lb. boneless beef sirloin

4 c. beef broth

1 c. lentils, rinsed and drained

3/4 c. chopped red pepper

1/2 c. chopped onion

1/2 c. chopped carrot

1/2 c. celery

1/2 c. diced tomato

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 tsp. ground cumin

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

1/3 c. chopped fresh parsley

 

– Trim the fat off the sirloin and cut into 3/4 in. pieces. For a richer soup, brown the meat in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned; otherwise, place uncooked meat in a 3 1/2 – 4-quart slow cooker.

 

-Stir in broth and lentils, 1 c. water, sweet pepper, onion, carrot, celery, garlic, cumin, and cayenne.

 

-Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7 hours. Stir in parsley.

Hygge is humble and slow. It is choosing rustic over new, simple over posh, and ambience over excitement. In many ways, hygge might be the Danish cousin to slow and simple living.
