More for me.

Sarah picked number 11. (Thanks Sarah!) Number 11 was...

"Beef Barley Lentil Soup" (6 quart pot)

~1 lb lean ground beef
~1 onion, chopped
~2 c cubed red potatoes
~1 c chopped celery
~1 c chopped carrot
~1 c dried lentils, rinsed
~1/2 c medium pearl barley
~8 c water
~2 t beef bouillon granules
~1 t salt
~1/2 t lemon-pepper seasoning
~2 (14.5 oz) stewed tomatoes

In a skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.
Transfer to crock pot.
Layer with potatoes, celery, carrots, lentils, and barley.
Combine water, bouillon, salt, and lemon-pepper; pour over veggies.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until veggies and barley are tender.
Add tomatoes; cook 2 hours longer.

10 servings.
I thought this was yummy and fun and healthy. My other half wasn't a fan. (He said he was more in the mood for comfort food.) My little helper dug the carrots. It made a TON, so I'll probably be eating ALL of the leftovers. I'm kind of okay with that.
