egg noodles

🥗Healthier: whole wheat noodles

💰Cheaper: pasta

Whole wheat noodles add fiber while pasta is more economical.

smoked bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: pork lardons

Turkey bacon is lower in fat, while pork lardons are more affordable.

Prepare the Alblinsen (or brown lentils) by rinsing them under cold water.

Chop the fresh soup vegetables (carrots, leek, celery, onion, parsley, lovage) into small pieces.

In a large pot, combine the lentils, chopped vegetables, and 1.5 liters of vegetable or meat broth. Bring to a boil and then simmer until the lentils are tender.

Add the cloves, bay leaves, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

In a separate pot, cook the Spätzle according to package instructions.

In the last few minutes of cooking the lentils, add the Saiten-/Wienerwürstchen to heat through.

Serve the lentils with the Spätzle on the side, and drizzle with butter and vinegar if desired.
