Lentil Soup

So, I know that 90 degrees isn't exactly soup weather, but I'm all about making quick meals in my crock pot. I've been making this since before my hubby and I were married, and it's pretty fool-proof!

Ingredients:
1 lb lentils, rinsed
1 14 oz can diced tomatoes
8 oz chopped frozen spinach
6 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1/2 large onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients in crock pot.
2. Cook on High for 4-6 hours, or low for 6-8.

I serve this with a green salad, and bread. If it seems like it's getting dry while it's cooking, just add some water. I also recommend adding hot sauce (tobasco, texas pete, or whatever you prefer) to each serving.
