How to make it
- Sauté veggies: carrots, peppers, and onions, until browned or translucent (5-6 minutes) in cooking oil; may use veggie broth (if trying to reduce fat) for sauté but must tend and stir constantly.
- While veggies are frying begin boiling water with bouillon cubes.
- Once veggies and bouillon are ready add veggies to broth.
- Add generous handful of shiitake mushrooms. The shiitake shrooms will soften and will brown the broth, adding an intense aroma and flavor.
- Add cut mushrooms, can of beans, lentil/pasta mix, peppercorns, bay leaves and any other seasonings.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer for about 30 minutes or until lentils are softened.
- Serve with hearty, warm dark bread; rye is best.
