cabbage lentil vegetable soup



I just used some ingredients I had on hand and I loved this--it tasted a bit like a corn chowder but with lots of flavor.The red lentils end up dissolving and make a nice broth.

Water
3 carrots
4-6 celery stalks
2-3 potatoes
1 large sweet potato
1 package of butter beans
1 package of soup veggies (this had veggies chopped small and included okra)
1 fresh zucchini
1/3 of a head of green cabbage
1/3 to 1/2 cup of red lentils
2-3 pinches of ground majorum
salt and pepper
Rosemary
thyme
dried minced onions
1 can of garbanzo beans

Put everything except the can of corn and garbanzo beans in a large soup pot which has been filled about 1/3 of the way full with water. Cook 45-60 minutes until veggies are just tender. Add the corn and garbonzo beans just letting them get warm.
