Honey Tips
Honey Bees Need Water
To keep their hives strong, beekeepers must place them in locations that will provide abundant nectar sources as well as water.
Directions
Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add sausage, fennel, onion and carrots. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add water, honey, lentils, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered about 25 minutes or until lentils have softened. Stir in vinegar. (If soup thickens too much add some chicken broth.)
