I have talked about my husbands grocery store adventures on here before and many of my recipes come about because I sent him shopping. He likes to go grocery shopping, but he doesn’t like to follow a long list. So while, I always send a list with him, I can always count on him coming…

Quick and Easy Green Curry with Veggies and Chickpeas
In my last post I talked a little about menu planning. I usually have a menu and I buy ingredients according to that menu. And usually buy some extra produce that I can use for snacks and lunches or just in case I can’t make it to the store in between menu plans. This week…
Crockpot Red Thai Veggie Curry
Mmmmm…Thai curry. Somebody please make me stop eating these Thai Lime & Chili Almonds from Trader Joe’s. I just ate one of the little dried chili’s and my mouth feels like hot lava. And I’m too lazy to go upstairs to get a drink, so I just keep eating them! I am a huge sucker…
Crock Pot Spinach Daal
When you hear the word comfort food, you probably think of mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and chocolate chip cookies. I do too. I also think Indian food with fresh, hot naan bread. Sundays are curry day in our house. Almost every Sunday my husband throws together a curry while I read to him. We…
Coconut Cauliflower Red Lentil Soup
After a quick burst of recipes to make in the heat of summer (Portobello Pineapple Burgers and Fresh Veggie Spring Rolls), we had a few days of cold, rainy, blustery weather. When it first started to rain, I opened all the windows to cool down the house and it never really warmed back up. I’m…
Masoor Daal
Another Indian recipe! Hooray! This soup is great. It is hearty, healthy, and easy to make. Daal is an Indian lentil soup. A lentil is a legume similar to a bean, but they are smaller and don’t take as long to cook. They are more like a split pea. They come in different varieties and…
Spicy Baked Potatoes
My husband is very nice about letting me experiment in the kitchen. He likes how I like to try cooking new things. He never requests or asks me to make things. I told him that I wish he would like something so much that he would beg me to make it. Well, today he found…
Garlic Naan Bread
My husband and I love Indian food. We are suckers for a good Indian buffet. And can you guess my favorite part of an Indian buffet? Naan Bread! We also make Indian food at home quite often. In fact, almost every Sunday, my husband grinds his own spices and makes a delicious Indian dish. This…
Chicken Tikka Masala
This is definitely my favorite kind of Indian food. You might have guessed from previous posts (like this one, this one, or this one) that we eat lots of Indian food in my house. Thanks to my husband. He loves anything Indian. He is always begging me to let him make dinner and when he…
