We started our year at the mountains, our favorite place to be!

Happy New Year, everyone!!

The snow started pretty slow this year but it's been cold enough to crave some hearty and warming soup. This week I made a lentil & vegetable soup using some red curry paste & ginger and it came out seriously delicious! A nutritious & flavorful meal to bring to the mountains in a Thermos.

🌿 1 chopped onion

🌿 3 minced garlic cloves

🌿 1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger

🌿 3 chopped carrots

🌿 2 chopped small white potatoes

🌿 2 chopped small sweet potatoes

🌿 1 chopped red pepper

🌿 1 cup red lentils

🌿 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth

🌿 2 cups water

🌿 2 to 3 Tbsp red curry paste

🌿 1 tsp salt

🌿 4 cups chopped kale (or other greens)

🌿 1 can light coconut milk

🌿 juice of 1 fresh lime

🌿 1 Tbsp maple syrup

Start by sautéing the onion for about 6 minutes until translucent.

Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for a couple minutes more.

Add the vegetables, lentils, broth, water, curry paste & salt, bring it to a boil, cover and reduce the heat. Cook for about 20 minutes.

Add the greens, cook for a couple minutes.

Stir in the coconut milk, lime and maple syrup.

Top with avocado or cilantro (optional).
