Healthy Red Thai Curry Lentils

Well it happened, the weekend came and went in a flash just like it always does.  Our weekend consisted of getting a new washing machine because last week the transmission in our old one went out, which come to find out repairing it would have been more than the new one we bought.  Oh the joys of adulting right?  On a positive note, I made some serious ground on the cookbook I am currently writing, Baby's First Eats!  I still have a list a mile long every day until my deadline, but I'm are making some serious progress people.  Since I am cooking all day everyday right now, easy dinners (that are healthy too) are a must!  My healthy red Thai curry lentils are the perfect weeknight dinner for hectic weeks like the ones I have in my future!

We have been loving lentils lately.  They are a great meat replacement with their high protein content and are really very satisfying too.  My hubby is even on board with a meatless meal once a week, especially when dinner tastes as good as this dish! 

One of the best things about this dish, other than the fact that it's so yummy, is that you will definitely have leftovers and that makes for another easy dinner later in the week!

I originally made this recipe for eHow!  Check out the full recipe and tutorial out on their site here.

Happy Monday guys!

Note:  To make this dish even more flavorful, add 1 Tbsp. Ginger!
