Lamb shanks add to this great lentil soup.

• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 2 cups lentils
• 2 lamb shanks
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 7 cups beef broth or water

Saute the onion and garlic in oil until tender. Combine in the crockpot with all other ingredients except the lemon juice and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Remove the shanks and remove the meat from them, dice it and add it back to the pot with the lemon juice. Stir and serve.
