Chicken Lentil Soup with Kale

Chicken Lentil Soup with Kale

1 onion, diced
3-4 carrots, diced
2 celery sticks, finely diced
3-4 garlic cloves, minced
4 cups broth
2 cups water
1 bullion cube
1 cup lentils
1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts
2 bay leaves
1 tsp dried basil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 can diced tomatoes
4 cups chopped kale
salt and pepper

Combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low 8-10 hours.  May need more water as lentils absorb liquid.
