Easy, inexpensive, nutritious, delicious, satiating, warming and super hearty. This dish has to got to be one of my all-time favorites, so I figured it's a MUST to share with you wonderful people.
Especially as we move away from summer, and the air begins to cool into a crisp, refreshing autumn, this will provide your mind, body and soul all the warmth and energy it needs to flourish.

Enjoy with rice, some type of grain/psuedograin, some green veggies or by itself. It's also delicious topped with avocado! But let's be real, what isn't?
