Veggie Peanut Curry
[blue_heading] Veggie Peanut Curry $0.90 per serving [/blue_heading]
Hello,
I’ve been busy in the kitchen again making “mostly” failed experiments that were too embarrassing to share. After looking around the net for different curry ideas I stumbled upon a peanut butter vegetable curry! I REALLY enjoy PB and I am expanding my knowledge of Indian dishes. Here in the Midwest we don’t see many readily available Indian cuisine shops; so we make do.
This is a great bulk budget minded meal. IT’s cheap, it’s simple, but most importantly it’s extremely good FOR you. It has some great nutritional specs. If you want more protein I would say to add a meat or a tofu. You could also add a dollop of Greek yogurt to this for a high protein and high probiotic meal.
*This goes really well with chicken or pork for a non-vegetarian option.
