Good To Be Back!

Been staying REALLY on track and I can feel it!  It's a great feeling!  I'm considering a "Raw Challenge" although I have to think about it, lol.  All raw, all whole, no cooking for an entire week.  YIKES!  But I think I can do it!  Maybe.  Stay tuned.

I promised you the recipe for the fat burning soup so here it is.  It was given to me so I cannot claim it as my own but I cannot say enough good things about it.  It is DELICIOUS!

DAHL SOUP


Cooking Spray
1 cup finely chopped yellow onion
2 clove garlic
1 tbsp chopped fresh ginger
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 cup dried red or green lentils - rinsed and picked
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp cardamon
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cayenne
1 dried hot chili pepper

Heat cooking spray in large pot.
Add onions, garlic and ginger and cook until translucent.
Add broth, lentils and spices and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 45 min.

After simmering for 45 minutes, I added another 4 cups of broth and doubled the spices (except the chili pepper) and let simmer for another hour or so. I added more cayenne than recipe calls for - love spicy!

It gets even better as leftovers






EAT, CRUNCH, ENJOY!

Have a great day folks!  Be kind to yourselves xo
