10 Minute Sweet and Spicy Sesame “Chicken” and Lentil Soup Recipe
On my healing journey it’s usually really hard for me to cook for myself. My Mom and I always come up with the recipes and she executes them beautifully while I cheerlead on the side and help when I can. Yesterday I could see that she was a little stressed and tired. I told her I will make my own soup since I felt like I could. Before I wouldn’t even be able to attempt it because I struggle to stand without passing out. Now we have a pretty lightweight wheelchair that I can Fred Flintstone my way around the kitchen seated. And then a recipe popped into my head so I made up everything on the spot. It took me about 10 minutes and it was really simple! I sat my beautiful Mom at the table, brought over the candle I had burning, and served her this delicious meal that she absolutely loved. It’s yummy! Usually we make soup from scratch and I rarely make any process food because I try to stay as close to Whole Foods or minimally processed food. But when you need something quick, at least these ingredients are organic and as healthy and minimally process as possible.
