Clean, delicious, comforting red lentil soup! You can prep dry ingredients and spices, and add whatever veggies you have on hand...I made it with cauliflower, carrots, and kale!

Basic thumbprint cookie. Very pretty, easy, and somewhat different flavor. Lovely on a tray with other Christmas cookies. These do not keep well, but neither do they last long. I frequently double this recipe, or else they are gone before I have them all baked.
