Sweet Potato Lentil Curry

Lately I have been learning more and more about different dietary restrictions and it can be complicated having a group of friends over for dinner. I was excited to come across a recipe from Julie Van Rosendaal. This one main dish recipe should accommodate most dietary restrictions. Sweet Potato Lentil Curry is meat free, dairy free, gluten free and delicious.
