Happy Monday! We had a full weekend of all the fall things. A bike ride with the girls and applesauce in the slow cooker. I had time to get our meal plan for the week lined up which always makes the week go so much more smoothly. With the weather cooling down, one of the highlights of the week is Vegetarian Lentil Chili - I'm so excited for this one (and all the toppings).

Hey friend, Let’s skip straight to the photo this week because how gorgeous is this color??? Click here for the full recipe! Frank and I have been feeling nostalgic lately for the years we lived in Bangkok. We hope to take the kids back there soon, but it’s not in the cards just yet. In the meantime, we like to bring Thailand to us through its food. So if you don’t like the way I made it (with squash and chicken), I’ve included a list of easy customizations to help you make this recipe your...
