Green Bean and Cauliflower Curry.

A cozy bowl of green bean and cauliflower curry is a healthy dinner that’s allergy friendly, too! Perfect for a busy weeknight. 

We’re one week into December. How’s it going? Busy? Chaotic? Are you shopping, baking, going to Christmas productions, making gifts, making calls, sending cards?

Wouldn’t it be nice to sit down and eat a comforting meal that’s actually healthy amid all the hustle and bustle?

Let’s make an easy curry – one with lots of veggies and a rich coconut based sauce.

This green bean and cauliflower curry is quick and easy to put together. If you would rather sub in different vegetables, you can do that. You can use potatoes, peas, leave out the chickpeas…this recipe is very flexible. If rice doesn’t work for you, serve it over quinoa or just eat it plain.

The warming curry spices make this meal a perfect way to warm up on a chilly night. Take a few minutes to make this and you’ll be happy you did! You need to have healthy, comforting meals at this time of year – to refuel from all the shopping and errands if nothing else!
