Sweet Potato & Chickpea Curry

This curry is bursting with flavor and easy to change up with your favorite veggies. A great dish to make in bulk for meal prep.

Curries are a staple of my diet, and this is one of my favorite varieties! It’s healthy, budget-friendly, protein-packed and easy to make in one pot on the stove or in a slow cooker. It starts with the classic blend of aromatic veggies for Indian-style curries: finely-diced onion, ginger, garlic and jalapeño, sautéed and cooked with cumin, coriander and turmeric.

Feel free to use the recipe as a guide and customize however you see fit. Sometimes I make this with russet potatoes instead, or add cauliflower. You can also add more coconut milk for a saucier curry, or leave it out altogether if you’re not a coconut fan.
