Looks very yummy! I might have to give this one a try, I love a meal that can be made in a crockpot – because I can start it before I go to work! Have you thought about searing the meat in a pan for a second before you throw it in? I do this when I do roasts, stews, etc – I just crank a pan up real high w/ a little oil and quickly sear the meat, then throw it in the crockpot… the carmelization of it adds to the flavor of the rest of the dish.

thanks for the comments:) you look like you’re doing a fab job if you’re able to keep up such a info-filled fun blog! but I will say this, try to enjoy every stage as much as possible, it really does go by faster with every month and year. Also try to make individual time with each of them. Thats much harder for us now since we are so outnumbered and have so little time but its really important to recognize them as individuals too and not just twins:) good luck and I’m sure I’ll be back again soon!

Anita- I know I really like her also and this is a super easy recipe! Let me know how it turns out for you.

Erik- I believe they are green or brown (is there such a thing) lentils, but I will check when I get home. I cooked on low and the lentils held up very well, with the perfect amount of bite.

This looks so yummy! It reminds me a little of my beef barley soup, but lentils are so much better for you, I think.

Are those green lentils? I find the red/orange ones just get mushy if cooked too long, so I suspect they would not survive a crockpot treatment.

I’m going to have to try this! I love Everyday Italian and miss it now that we don’t have cable.
