Chickpea red curry is delicious, quick and easy meal. It’s loaded with flavor and packed full with veggies.
Chickpeas are a great versatile plant-based protein, that are also loaded with fiber, thiamin, vitamin B6, folate, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, and manganese!
This curry is made with cashew cream rather than coconut milk, making it a lighter fare. Serve with cauliflower rice for a light meal or with cooked quinoa to add more protein. To add even more protein to the dish, use 2-3 cups of beans or even diced tempeh.
Make a large batch of this and use it for leftovers. To change it up, serve it over a roasted sweet potato or in a whole grain wrap with greens.
