December 21, 2011 recipe redux

Curried Eggplant and Chickpea Soup

eggplant-soup
this month for the recipe redux we’ve been challenged to prepare a recipe with legumes that would be a festive crowd pleaser.
december has been a great month. so far it has included the perfect amount of holiday parties and entertainment, a little bit of travel and a smidge of relaxing. (actually, i’m hoping some serious down-time can come as christmas day nears.)
whether it’s for a christmas party or a night in by a warm fire, this soup is flavorful, cozy and comforting. roasting the vegetables and chickpeas brings out a delightful, complex flavor that i love.
