I love this recipe, I make a big pot of it and then freeze individual portions for days when I can't be bothered cooking. <br />I was looking for a picture of your soup to put on my blog. I googled "mellow yellow sniffle soup" and found it on the "Alive" website, with no mention of your name! how rude! Anyway, i thought i'd let you know. ingridINGRIDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01769203325240515983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-4328406090150420242006-12-03T19:25:00.000-08:002006-12-03T19:25:00.000-08:00AW that is a great story :)

My first, official sniffle soup tester. If only my girls ate as well as your kids. I'm not always sure how 'kid-friendly' a recipe is because of my picky-poos!! :)<br /><br />Hi Laura - poor you and Bob... wow, quite a few of the comments here people have colds, etc. I'm certain it's the time of year - the stress of everything that goes along with the holidays wears our immune systems. I hope you are doing better now!! <br /><br />Hi Sarah, thanks! I love lentils too - I have a few lentil dishes lined up right now, and if I have time I may try to squeeze in another. Thanks for the offer, I'll let you know if I need another tester, thanks. :)<br /><br />Thanks Teresa, though I think my recipe names can be awfully corny!! Oh well, like you say, as long as it entices us (and hopefully our kidlets) to eat it, it's working! :)Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-73144950536582681422006-12-01T20:56:00.000-08:002006-12-01T20:56:00.000-08:00Dreena, you come up with the greatest names for di...Dreena, you come up with the greatest names for different dishes. Plus its so much more fun for kids (and us Big Kids...haha) when their dinner has a special name. <br /><br />I'm glad it helped the little one get better!<br /><br />-TeresaTeresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17753640845806353841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-58649765468414308882006-12-01T17:00:00.000-08:002006-12-01T17:00:00.000-08:00Hi Dreena,

I would love to see more lentil recipes in your new book, maybe a lentil casserole or something like that! If you're still looking for a tester to try your soup, I'd be interested!?<br /><br />Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-37454184920728782332006-12-01T13:42:00.000-08:002006-12-01T13:42:00.000-08:00How I would have loved to have some of your magic ...How I would have loved to have some of your magic sniffle soup this week in our home--Bob and I have been under the weather for several days!

Can't have you all down with the sniffles for too long!! Thank you so much for that compliment on the VegNews article - I was a little unsure about the theme, so I'm happy to know that you and a few others are enjoying the recipes in there! :)<br /><br />Thanks Melissa! I think lentils are the "friendly legume"... esp red lentils, they just dissolve into a dish.<br /><br />Ha ha, Angie, I love that story. Of course, at a certain age, kids just find anything related to bodily functions hilarious, right? So why not give our foods a few silly names to get them to try it! Great story. Oh, and what a smart substitution in the oat bundles - I'll have to give that a whirl myself sometime! :)<br /><br />Thanks Starla! The book is out fall 2007 - probably late October - we'll know more in the Spring.<br /><br />Hi Savanna, yeah the red lentils go a yellowish color when cooked, and they have such a mild flavor that I really love. Hey, that's so great you love the caramel sauce - I like using partly richer, darker sugar in that sauce too - either partially date or sucanat or muscovado (though I don't buy that often). The darker, more molasses-tasting sugars used just in part in that sauce helps with the caramel flavor... I'm so glad you did that and liked the result - now to try it with Turtle Tracks... mmmmmm! :)<br /><br />Thanks Kris, it's really soup season now, huh? We've been eating a lot of soups and really hearty casseroles - and it's been unusually cold here the last week so soups totally hit the spot! (maybe you got some of the same stormy weather in Portland - we got an insane amount of snow (for Vancouver) and had several days of quite a cold snap)<br /><br />Hi Dayle - I have no idea what you're talking about - I'll check out the link. Remember all the soups mom used to make with turkey and chicken - and then we also ate a lot of those awful chicken noodle or rice Campbell's soups - ugh!Dreenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551890320761504899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19150019.post-18172713570082843972006-12-01T05:20:00.000-08:002006-12-01T05:20:00.000-08:00Hey Dreen!
