                                Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons butter
 - 1 medium onion diced
 - 3 ribs celery diced
 - 2 large carrots diced
 - 1 ½ cups brown lentils or green lentils
 - 6 cups chicken broth *
 - 15 ounces canned petite diced tomatoes with juices, 1 can
 - 1 meaty ham bone or 2 cups leftover ham
 - 2 cloves garlic minced
 - 1 bay leaf
 - ½ teaspoon black pepper
 - ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves or 3 sprigs fresh thyme
 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
 
Instructions
- Heat butter over medium heat in a small skillet and add onion. Cook until slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
 - Combine all ingredients except parsley in a 6qt slow cooker.
 - Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low 7-8 hours.
 - Discard bay leaf. Remove the ham bone if using and pick off any bits of ham. Add the ham to the soup.
 - Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.
 
Notes
- This makes a thick soup, add up to 2 cups more broth for a thinner soup.Use brown or green lentils for the best results.Lentils do not need to be pre-soaked.
 - Keep leftover soup covered in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
 - Freeze soup in for up to 8 weeks. Thaw on the stovetop on medium heat or in the fridge overnight before reheating.
