We make a ton of different curries in the winter months – especially ones like this which are warm and have a good amount of spice (red pepper flakes are optional, but we load ‘em on).  The coconut milk gives this curry a creamy texture, while the fresh lime juice packs a real punch!  Garnishes are optional but 100% recommended – I love piles of fresh cilantro on anything, so its a good excuse to load up!

Whats In This Vegan Coconut Curry?

• Chickpeas
• Canned Tomatoes
• Oil of choice (can use coconut oil or olive oil)
• Red Onions
• Coconut Milk
• Warming spices
• Garnishes like lime, cilantro, and cashews

This recipe is great because it makes a lot of leftovers too, so we can have it a few times during the week, so it can definitely be a good Meal Prep option for a Sunday night.  Plus its ready in about a half hour, so making this after work on a weeknight is an option!
