WINTER LENTIL VEGETABLE SOUP
This soup has very little fat, is cheap and easy to make and delicious. Our family practically lives on it in the winter and I usually double the recipe. Sprinkle grated cheddar on top if you wish. If you can't hang around long enough for this to cook, put it in a slow cooker.

LENTIL SOUP WITH WHEAT BERRIES AND KALE
This is the ultimate "nothing in the house to eat" dinner that just happens to be vegetarian and extremely nourishing. If you have homemade chicken or vegetable stock on hand, don't hesitate to use it instead of water. That said, you'll get an incredible amount of flavor from the soffritto, lentils, and kale alone.

Steps:
- Pulse carrots, onion, and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Heat oil in a 6-quart stockpot or Dutch oven over medium, then add vegetables; season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper, stirring to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to look juicy, about 3 minutes. Partially cover with a lid, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are completely tender but have not taken on any color, 10-12 minutes.
- Add wheat berries, coriander, turmeric, and bay leaves and stir to combine. Cook until bottom of pot is just starting to brown, about 2 minutes. Add 10 cups water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Season with 1 1/2 tsp. salt, then reduce heat to medium-low and bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until grains show signs of softening but are nowhere near done, about 15 minutes. Add lentils and kale and stir well to combine. Kale should be submerged; add another cup of water if needed. Partially cover pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until lentils and grains are tender and kale is very silky, 40-45 minutes more. Pluck out bay leaves. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
- Divide soup among bowls. Serve with Parmesan for sprinkling over and bread for dunking.

CUMIN-SCENTED WHEAT BERRY-LENTIL SOUP
From Eating Well March/April 2007 -- Freshly squeezed lemon juice adds a bright note to this toothsome and hearty winter soup, perfect for a weeknight supper with a hunk of crusty bread. It freezes beautifully - you can keep individual portions in the freezer for healthy weekday lunches. NOTE: Wheat berries are whole kernels of wheat with just the outer husk removed. When cooked they have a chewy bite and nutty flavor. Preparation of the wheat berries in advance is necessary - get the wheat berries cooking for about 30 minutes, then start the soup. Timing is everything!

LENTIL AND BUCKWHEAT SOUP
Lentils and buckwheat simmer to make a hearty stew. This is a typical 'zuppa' for a winter evening in Italy. Serve with crusty bread topped with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Typical to most Italian food, this is healthy and delicious.

CHICKPEA, CANNELLINI BEAN, AND WHEATBERRY SOUP
I tweaked this recipe from one in La Cucina Italiana magazine. There are so many Amazing recipes in that publication! What I have done is add some herbs to get that extra little zip in flavor. You can add nearly Anything to this soup since it's so basic, but I kept it simple with just adding herbs.

Steps:
- Soak cannelini beans in warm water overnight (or approx 8 hours). In a separate container, soak chickpeas and wheatberries together with baking powder overnight (or approx 8 hours).
- Lighlty salt soaking water and cook cannelini beans and chickpea/wheatberry mixture separately until al dente.
- Drain both pots, but don't throw the chickpea/wheatberry cooking water out-you'll need it for later.
- Add Cannellini beans to chickpea/wheatberry mixture in a big pot. Put back 7 cups of the cooking water (or if you eyeballed the bean/pea/berry amounts like I did, just make sure it's covered enough to look like a soup and add fresh water if needed). Salt and pepper the water just a teeny bit. Cook all together until everything is tender. When served, drizzle soup with olive oil, herbs, and pepper to taste.
