MOROCCAN BEEF AND LENTIL SOUP
We call this hippie soup, it's one of the best Moroccan beef and lentil soups I've ever made. This could be a whole meal on its own. It takes a lot of preparation but is surely worth it!

LENTIL SOUP WITH BEEF AND BARLEY
This soup is thick and flavorful and can be a lifesaver on those days before payday! It can be extended with more liquid; more veggies can be added or the beef can be replaced with sausage meat, ground veal or ground pork. It freezes and reheats well. Serve with good brown bread or biscuits. I have even tossed in a can of beans in tomato sauce. Good stuff!

BEEF AND LENTIL SOUP
Not having any barley, I decided to try a recipe from my favourite soup cookbook. Against my usual practice, I added 1/2 tsp of salt to the soup pot. It does add to the flavour.
