Soft Foods Recipes?

[OakLeaf]

Heat ghee (or canola oil), fry curry powder until spices are browned and aromatic.

Add chopped onions, carrots and celery and saute about 5 minutes (the original recipe says "until browned," which I have no idea how you would tell with all the coloring from the fried curry powder

Add rinsed red lentils (masoor dal) and about 3 times as much water as lentils, bring to a boil then cover and simmer until lentils are mushy, 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding water as necessary

Add canned tomatoes (or you can add fresh tomatoes along with the other veggies)

Add salt to taste

Puree with a stick blender

If desired, garnish with or stir in a dollop of yogurt


That's one of my go-to recipes for a really easy, delicious meal. We usually serve it with rice (to complete the protein) and garnish with plenty of chopped cilantro also - I guess those could be pureed in as well.


PS don't necessarily blame the MIL. I have TMJ as the result of a fad that many orthodontists followed when I was that age, leaving me (and thousands of others) with an anterior open bite. Three gold molar crowns already (no porcelain with the amount of force they take), five to go

I hadn't thought about either tofu in soup or pancakes. My grocery list is growing. Thanks for the great ideas.

By the way, we love curry, so this will be great to have around!

Keep them coming!
