We had 2 snow days this past week, so I made soup, of course! This time was lentil soup with rosemary. In the dutch oven, I sauteed onions , then added carrots, celery, and tomatoes (one of my own cans!). I cooked all of that for just a few minutes, then added a bag of lentils, a bunch of rosemary, and a box of broth. I cooked it for maybe 45-60 minutes, till the lentils were cooked, and presto! It was good. and the rosemary cooked down so soft, it didn't matter if you ate it or not. The recipe called for fresh, but I used dried, and I forgot to crush it first. We have tons from a rosemary tree we had been growing, that died. Dead=dried for you!
