Carrot Lentil Soup
After a few rounds of tinkering, this carrot lentil soup has become one of my favorite weeknight staples. The brightness of lime juice, richness of coconut milk, and the finishing touch of cilantro and crispy chili oil make every bowl both comforting and lively the kind of meal you'll want to make again and again.
