lentil soup

What can I say?  I'm in the mood to blog.  My hubby is working late tonight and dinner is already cooked.  Here's what we're having: crock pot lentil soup from this site.  I occasionally try new lentil recipes because I'm determined to find one that we all like.  Here's the thing about lentils. They're super foods which is always good, they are one of the few beans you don't have to soak overnight, and I don't know, I just like them.  This one in the crock pot tastes pretty good to me, though my family didn't rave.  (Our new motto is: You don't have to like it, you just have to eat it! We're pretty mean, huh.)  They did eat it, mostly without complaining.  It uses ham hocks, which are not for the faint of heart since they're basically pig legs.  But they make it taste good!  I'd recommend it if you don't mind your food a little bland, want dinner to be easy to make, and are trying to figure out how to get lentils into your diet.
