I figured it was time to make Harry Lentil and Red Veggie Puree and see if he liked it. And I am pleased to say, despite the snotty nose and feral cold he is suffering at the moment, he ate it all. He even made Mmmm noises, and got upset when I stopped feeding to take the photo. It seems this carnivore is full of surprises…

…or he just can’t taste it properly.

Ingredients:

1 small leek (or onion), sliced finely
1/2 small red capsicum
4 tablespoons water
1 tomato, chopped
3/4 tin organic lentils, drained
1/2 sweet potato, peeled, diced
1 cup vegetable stock

Heat the water in a large saucepan. Saute the leek and red capsicum for 5 minutes. Add the sweet potato, tomato, lentils and stock, cover and leave for 15 minutes or until sweet potato is soft. Puree until you have desired consistency and freeze in small portions.

“I am a full time mum to a beautiful little (big) boy, Harry. I find I don’t have two free hands at any one time, and so ‘one handed cooks’ was born. My recipes are all quick and easy to make, leaving you time to wipe a nose, give a cuddle or feed a hungry child”
