This week was all about warm comfort food since it is finally cold here in Nashville. Last week I made a double batch of the Curried Lentil, Tomato, and Coconut Soup so I had that as an easy Monday night meal. The rest of the week included some ramen (which is also a great meal to stash in the freezer, just don’t add the noodles in if you are going to freeze because noodles don’t freeze well), grain bowl and a one past pasta which is an oldie but goody.

This curried lentil, tomato and coconut soup was inspired by his recipe and it does not disappoint. I have added it to my weeknight dinner rotation because it is easy, healthy, and freezes well. I served my soup with some grilled pizza dough as a fake “naan” but feel free to serve with any crusty bread you can find to soak up all of that goodness.

This grain bowl with carrot hummus was born out of the heaping mounds of carrots that seem to have been collecting in my fridge. I love good grain salad and served alongside a smear of carrot hummus, this might be the perfect healthy meal.

It was one of the best trips of my life, hands down. Between the people, the sights and the food (most definitely the food) it was an amazing experience.
