A Soul Transformation: Spiced Lentil Stuffed in Banana Peppers

A soul transformation formation for banana peppers. Yes, you are thinking right. The banana peppers in my refrigerator had an epiphany (Spiritual); Peppers in an Indian cuisine manifestation.My palate also experienced an epiphany (Complete essence); it was soul satisfying to taste the sweet-hot crust of banana peppers with spiced-mashed lentils filling.

We went to ballet today and had a lovely mousse treat at Mrs. London's. What a satisfying day it was; with NYC ballet center performing Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" and a creamy chocolate mousse did it all for us.Ending the day watching Aviator while devouring the peppers with saffron rice was indeed soul satisfying.
