a soup day
An article in the Washington Post last week titled "6 vegetable-filled soups to help you counterbalance that rich holiday food" caught my eye. It includes several recipes that I immediately thought I needed to try.
Since today was chilly and gray, it felt like a good day for soup. Today's soup was Apricot and Red Lentil Soup. Red lentils form a favorite soup base, and the addition of apricots sounded interesting. I liked the combination of savory and sweet. If you're not an apricot fan it seems like using a different dried fruit would be a reasonable change.
