Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup dried lentils
1 cup pearl barley
5 scallions, with 1/2 the green,sliced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can no-salt-added stewed tomatoes
1/2 package kielbasa, sliced (I used Healthy Choice)
1 cup frozen vegetables (any kind. I've used just corn, or the mixed, or chopped spinach)
8 cups water
1 teaspoon parsley
salt and pepper

Steps:

In large pot, add everything but the frozen vegetables.
Bring to a boil, then lower to medium and let simmer until the barley and lentils are tender- about 30-45 minutes When the grains are tender, add the vegetables and simmer for just a few more minutes until the vegetables are done.
Check the seasonings and enjoy with a nice salad and some fresh bread!
