Need a quick meal for meatless Monday? I’m bringing together the best quick and easy vegetarian curry recipes that are perfect for busy weeknights.
Is it bad that I’m already looking forward to fall meals? Before you get upset, hear me out. I LOVE summer and would never wish it away, but there’s an element of comfort from a warm meal on a cool day that you can’t get from anywhere else, you know?
We’ve been pretty much in a heatwave for most of the summer, and I have to say I’m getting a bit tired of bean salads, which has been my go-to meatless lunch all summer. This has got me thinking of my favourite warm meatless dishes that I rely on throughout the fall and winter. One of my weekly go-to meatless meals during cooler months is a vegetarian curry. I’ll typically use either chickpeas or lentils for protein, load it up with veggies, and serve over rice.
I plan to keep enjoying bbq meals and fresh veggies from my garden for the remainder of the summer. After all, this season is so short! So for now, I’m bringing together a roundup of my favourite vegetarian curry recipes. Continue reading for the best quick and easy vegetarian curry recipes.
