There’s nothing better than a warm bowl of homemade soup on a cold dreary day.  My sister, Elizabeth, recently gave me. Madhur Jaffrey’s World Vegetarian cookbook & I  decided to try making the Madras curried tomato soup this afternoon for lunch.  I didn’t have all the ingredients so I had to improvise a bit but I was quite pleased with the result.   Delicious!  I paired it with a goat cheese quesadilla.    As my soup simmered on the stove,  I was able to enjoy the aroma.   When the soup was ready, I ladled it into a favorite bowl  and savored each spoonful.  When I was finished, I felt pleasantly full and satisfied.   Is there a recipe you have been wanting to try?    Making and trying new dishes is one of the joys of mindful eating.   This week, try making a new dish and eating it with full awareness and attention.
