Meatless Monday

For a while now I've devoted Monday's as "Meatless Monday".   I'm not sure when I decided to do this.  It kind of came naturally.  After a long weekend of eating out at restaurants or having barbeque in our backyard I would just not crave meat on mondays.  So, for lunch I made some carrot soup from the Real Simple website.  I tweaked it a bit, by adding some leftover sweet potato mash from last night's dinner and instead of fresh ginger I used the spiced kind from home.  Amelia had some but I think next time I'll use less ginger and pepper because it might have been a bit too spicy for her.
