Um... how do you handle the "after effects" of eating lots of veggies and/or beans??

Blame it on the dog

One of my favorite (nearly meatless) meals is black bean soup. I add smoked turkey wings for flavor, but you certainly omit that. I wouldn't, but you know...

Anyway, turkey wings, beans, water, rotel tomatoes...throw it all in the crock pot and let it go all day. I serve it with sour cream and cheese with tortilla chips.

The Curried Lentil Soup is AMAZING! We had leftovers last night, so I made it tonight. Doubled the recipe. I don't usually use curry, so the kids wrinkled their noses a bit, but they loved it, too! Used my immersion blender -- the kids love split pea soup, so this was similar. We thought the curry as written was perfect.

Thanks so much for a new winter soup!!!!

Yay! So glad to hear this! Sometimes you know you love something but not sure how it will turn out for someone else. Happy.
