My family used to eat at a Greek restaurant often and some of us really enjoyed their lentil soup, my mother then managed to replicate it rather accurately, It is a vegetarian soup that would go great with some pita bread and a sandwich.

==Ingredients==
*2 cups brown lentils
*1 large potato
*2 carrots (or halved baby carrots)
*1 onion
*1/4 cups fresh parsley
*2 tbsp Vinigar or lemon juice
*Ground Pepper and Salt

==Procedure==
*Slice the onion into large chunks.
*Saute onion chunks in a small amount of olive oil in a large pot (or if you prefer the low edges use a skillet)

*If you cooked the onions in a skillet like me go ahead and toss them into a large pot.
*Add the 2 cups of brown lentils and 6 cups of water to the pot.

*Bring the contents of the pot to a boil.
*While you are waiting on the Contents to boil go ahead and chop the Carrots into thick slices, the potato into large cubes, and chop the parsley up fine.
*Once boiling add the rest of your carrots, potato, and parsley

*Once the potatoes and lentils are tender, you may salt and pepper to taste.
<B>WARNING:</B>(Don't salt the beans until they are done or it will make them tough.)
*Just before serving, add a couple tablespoons of vinegar or lemon juice

==Serving==
Put it in a bowl and enjoy it, you may want to add more salt or pepper to it, and I find adding some more uncooked fresh parsley enhances the flavor.
