Lentil Coconut Curry Stew

I’ve been trying to experiment with more flavors when cooking for Jack, and thought a lentil stew with some curry powder would be a fun one to try.

I added in veggies he already likes (carrots and Japanese sweet potato), and also included coconut milk for some creaminess.

This is definitely a good one that’s perfect for a cold day, and it makes a lot so you can freeze some for leftovers down the road! You can even puree the soup once cooked if you want a smoother texture.

Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
