5. Lentils with cabbage
Mon Jul 21, 2025, 04:56 PM

too hearty to be a soup

brown lentils
cabbage
onion
carrots
tomato (had 1 overripe medium size chopped up)
ham chunks
ham stock

Seasonings: Garlic and oregano and a Italian mix (oregano, sage, thyme, rosemary and ?)

I would make this differently next time with more tomato and no carrots perhaps adding bell pepper. It would be good without the ham as well.

During the prep I offered Ducky a rib from the cabbage. Sniff, sniff. What's this? Lemme take it away now! Crunch crunch crunch. Skitter, skitter, gimme more! I didn't give him more because I wanted to be sure it agreed with his tummy. He'd be happy if we served him a veggie plate with broccoli, baby carrots, and maybe cabbage ribs.
