Day 100 Recipe 86, Lentil Curry pg 110 Check ++

I was talking with a new friend tonight who is attempting to cook more healthy, vegetarian meals, but cannot find recipes where you really prepare a main dish.
She said all she can find are recipe books that tell you how to cook asparagus or broccoli or what we would call side dishes, not main courses. So, of course, I told her about "Dining with Bill Irwin".

Lentil Curry is one such main dish and it is totally satisfying. You feel like you have eaten a meal, not a bunch of vegetables. I think this is what sets Bill's book apart from all the others

I really encourage you to try the Lentil Curry. I served it over brown rice as suggeted and then I topped it with tomato chutney. It was so good. As I was preparing the dish I realized that I was out of curry powder, of all the things to be out of! Anyway, I found out online that you can make curry powder by mixing coriander, tumeric, cumin and red pepper. It worked like a charm!

Till tomorrow............
