Melt margarine. Brown carrots, onions and parsnips in margarine. Slowly add water, mixing gently. Add lentils and barley. Simmer on low for about a half an hour. Add salt, pepper and chicken stock. Cook slowly until all barley and lentil is cooked.
Variations: You may add extra barley and/or lentils and you may also add dried peas. For each cup of extra ingredients you add, you will need to add 2-3 cups of extra water.
