Our family's comfort foods have slowly started evolving as our menu has changed. One thing that has remained consistent: our kids find comfort in a warm bowl of soup. Taco soup, noodle soup, veggie soup...we love soup! Soup that cooks in a crock pot is even better!
I decided to switch things up a bit and check out a new recipe for lentil-veggie soup. This is a crock pot recipe, but I had to finish it up on the stove top. If I had it to do all over I'd soak my lentils overnight, and make sure my veggies were chopped small enough to cook in a crock pot in the time allotted. Otherwise, the flavor was wonderful. The kids loved it and have already asked when I'm making it again.
Alongside our big bowls of soup were steaming, delicious corn muffins. One of the girls helped me whip these up from a box mix. We used applesauce in place of the eggs. They were delicious! Very dense and moist. Yum!
Yum, wish I was there to partake in that.
