Photos from my book Healthy Holiday Favorites for Rave Reviews

Here are photos from the book I collaborated with Robyn Openshaw (green smoothie girl) on. This collection is full of recipes that are classic holiday food, made healthy.

Sweet Pumpkin and Red Lentil Curry

1 small pumpkin, chopped, seeded, and peeled
1 tsp. olive oil
2 medium onions
2 tsp. minced garlic
2 tsp. coriander
1 tsp. hot red pepper flakes
1 tsp. tumeric
1 tsp. curry
1 tsp. minced ginger
5 cups veggie or chicken broth
2 cups red lentils
salt and pepper to taste
Juice of one lemon


Saute the onion in olive oil. Add spices, ginger, garlic, and pumpkin stir together and cook for one minute, add broth cook for ten minutes, or until pumpkin is almost soft. Add the lentils and cook for 15 minutes or until the lentils are soft. Mash the pumpkin pieces up a bit so it is more of a thick curry, add lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Adjust seasonings to taste.
