What can I say? After the large meals and treats that often come with holidays, I always end up feeling as if my body needs a reprieve from it all. Especially when there's a few more still just around the corner!

This avocado egg salad is the perfect way to fill my plate and I with the good stuff while keeping it light, healthy, and super delicious. I've been a huge fan of avocado for a while now, but lately's it's almost been out of control. So much so that I'm now putting in my egg salad!

That might sound a little strange, but hear me out. Avocados are often a great swap for mayonnaise because of their creamy texture. Plus, those avocados have a lot more vitamins than you'll find in mayo anyway. So it's just a win, win...

I've been craving curry of all types lately. I'm not exactly sure why either. Perhaps it's the change in weather that's increasing my desire for something warm and spicy. I attempted to make a green chicken curry last week but was not exactly a fan of the overwhelming amount of spice-heat that came from it. Yikes! It's a recipe that is definitely a work in progress.

This week I decided to go with a red curry, which is generally what I order when out at any thai place. I think red curry is generally a little less spicy than the green, but that also depends on how much of what curry paste or powder you put in.

With pumpkin season in full swing, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to use up some nice pumpkin puree! I've added it to chili before... so why not curry?...
