Yesterday was Columbus Day

In honor of Columbus Day I cooked a meal with both
Old World Food and New World Food.

~~~~~

The Old World Food was represented by lentils and onions
while the New World Food was tomatoes and potatoes.
(I added one can of diced Italian-style tomatoes to the following recipe.)


I found the recipe for Crockpot Lentil and Sausage Soup here:

1 cup uncooked lentils
1/2 lb kielbasa, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup onions, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1 cup carrots, finely chopped
1 cup potatoes, diced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 (16 ounce) cans beef broth
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  1. Rinse lentils and drain.
  2. Place all ingredients in crockpot.
  3. Cook on low for 6 hours, stirring occasionally.
