Noodles with Thai Green Curry and Veggies

I made this recipe twice in one week.  It's that good. And you don't have to tell anyone that it took a mere 15 minutes to cook this dish from start to finish!

You can throw in whatever veggies you like in here.  Tofu or chicken would also make this meal more substantial.  I, however, kept it light and simple and merely used chives, carrots and broccolini (my new obsession).

My Husband's Pasta - Made with Mushrooms, Spinach and Balsamic Vinegar

My husband is an amazing cook.  He likes to pretend that he's not but every time he ventures into the kitchen to make something it always turns out fantastic.  This dish is no exception.  When he first told me he was going to be cooking this pasta I was a bit skeptical... the recipe included mushrooms, spinach, balsamic vinegar and orange juice...  It turns out I had nothing to worry about as this is one of the best pasta dishes I have ever tasted.  It is light, tangy and is so delicious that it makes me hungry every time I think about it.  This recipe has definitely become a staple in our home.

A Spicy Lentil Dish

I love this dish - it's hearty (eating just a little of it will make you feel full, but in a good way), it's healthy and above all it's so easy to prepare.

I made a bunch of it yesterday afternoon and left it out until my husband came home in the evening and it tasted even better after letting all the flavors mix for a few extra hours.

So cook yourself some of these lentils sometime soon.  It's a great way to get your protein, iron and fiber.

Chickpea (Channa) Masala

Today I thought I'd give one of my favorite Indian dishes, channa masala, a try.  I didn't have a recipe for it, so I thought I would experiment with different spices and flavors until it turned into something familiar - and it did!  So if you want a simple recipe to follow which will get you "authentic" results, this is it :)...
