B-Reds Lentil & Sweet Potato Dish

Since going non-dairy while breastfeeding, I've recieved some great wholesome recipes from friends. Becca Redinger was wonderful enough to share this lentil & sweet potato recipe she'd made up with me, and came over help me cook it! Book club agrees this one's a healthy hit:

Ingredients:
1.5 c. Quinoa
1 c. Red Lentils
2 c. Green Lentils
3 Sweet Potatoes cut to 1" cubes
1 Onion chopped
Handfull Raisins
Parsley (fresh or tube)
Dash of Lemon Juice
Cinnamon, Salt, Pepper to taste

Boil about 6 cups water, add quinoa and lentils and cook about 15 minutes. Until lentils begin to fall apart. In a separate pan, saute onion in olive oil 5 min. - set aside - then saute sweet potato in olive oil for up to 20 min. until soft, add water to pan to steam a bit. Combine all cooked ingredients into a large soup pot. Add parsley, lemon juice, cinnamon and salt and pepper to taste. Serves about 8.

Change of seasons, change of sites

This Fall, instead of renewing our mac-web subscription, we're giving the blog world a go! The goal is to get photos and updates of our growing Grant family on an easier regular basis. Now, the designer within is going to fight me (Laura) to tweak away at this layout and graphic look, but hopefully I'll be able to surrender to the blessing of blog simplicity. Hoping that even Tripp will be inspired to take part in this method of sharing. Goodness knows, David's going to make sure his mark and spunky Kodak moments are all over these pages. Thanks to everyone that follows along with us here!
