One of my favorite things to eat :)
Fall’s Favorite Curry
Ingredients:
- 1 cup non-dairy milk of choice, such as coconut milk, soymilk, etc. (I use almond milk)
- Imagine No-Chicken broth
- 4 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons good curry powder (make sure to use one you know that you like; once I bought a different brand, because they were out of my favorite, and it was horrible! I really like Kroger brand or SmartSpice)
- 1 T minced garlic
- 1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
- 1 cup roasted sweet potato or winter squash, mashed (I use butternut squash, but sweet potato would be just as delicious.)
- a large onion, diced
- 2-4 bell peppers, diced (I use four, because I’m a pepper fanatic)
- 1 bag broccoli florets (about 340-425 grams)
- 1 bag green beans
Procedure:
Combine non-dairy milk, tomato paste, curry powder, garlic, and salt in a small saucepan until well-mixed. (If you like a really saucy curry, you can double the sauce.)
Meanwhile, steam the broccoli and the green beans until tender.
In a different pan from the one with the sauce, sauté the bell pepper and onion. Now add the sauce, broccoli, and green beans. Stir in the squash or sweet potato. Feel free to add beans for a protein boost.
Finally, add 1/2 cup to 2/3 cup Imagine No-Chicken stock and mix it all up.
It’s especially good cold… but my predilection for a cool curry might change once the winter weather hits.
What can you do when you’re sick of curry but still have some left? Throw it in the Vita-mix!I added spinach and more broth to make a Sweet Curry Soup.
Random Thought for the day:
Before I end this post, I want to leave you with a Barack Obama quote I heard on CNN last night: “Our preference is to get a shelter dog because obviously, a lot of the shelter dogs are mutts like me.”
I hugged the tv screen. No, seriously, I did. How great would it be for raising dog-adoption awareness if the president of the United States rescued a dog?! Here’s hoping…

Saw your comment on my blog (sorry I’m so late getting back to you!). RE: the bowl, I think I got it at a dollar store, believe it or not! I tend to pick up anything cute whenever I’m there and save it for the blog. I got 3 bowls that day, in 3 different colors. I’m sure you’ll see the others make their appearance in due time. . .!

Thank you for the recipe!!!! I’ve been waiting for it

The image of you hugging the TV is just too cute! I was also really happy to hear him say that.
I love love love curry in pretty much any form! But I usually go nuts and add 2-3 tablespoons of mild (not spicy hot) curry powder. Mmmm I need to make some soon!
)
And behold the transformational power of a high-powered blender. Seriously, I have no idea how I existed before my BlendTec!
Your curry looks and sounds soooooo delicious! I would definitely want to eat it warm.
Aww! What a cute picture of you:D
haha nice, I’m sure the television loved receivinga hug – I’m pretty sure that it had never had one before. haha
I’m going to have to try this. Is it spicy???
I had a delicious pumpkin curry last night and now I’m going to have to scour the Internet for a decent recipe.
Thanks for sharing the recipe and the variations!
I love your curry recipe! Aren’t curries so very heart warming? A sweet taters in curry is to die for.
I have been eating your frozen grapes!! Thanks for that tip – it has been a godsend the last few weeks.
A great recipe! Just the thing for the winter months.
Hooray!! Thanks for showing the picture–I started singing the song right away
This sounds like an awesome, crazy veggy-packed curry. Thanks for sharing!
Special K, I don’t know what’s going on with my reader, but I can’t seem to read your posts or something- like I can see your new post, but I can’t get to it. It’s weird.
But hey, the recipe sounds delish and I LOVE OBAMA!
Michael–
awwwww, thanks so much; you’re too sweet! Yeah, I’d love to help set up a vegan forum thing… I’m really busy lately, but just let me know how I can help!
Haha and the food sounds delish!
Sarah–
).
It’s not spicy at all, but sweet (thanks to the winter squash). But you can always add hot sauce or chili powder if you’d like
I hadn’t heard that Obama quote yet, but I did read he promised the HSUS to adopt. How cool is that?!
Delicious looking curry! That is a great Obama quote. We have two shelter dogs and two shelter cats. All are mutts and great animals.
Katie – This was awesome! I literally licked my plate!
I plan to blog about this awesome dish very soon!
Just pointing out for your other readers, I think you have a typo in this recipe, as I think you mean 1/4 tsp salt–I put in 1/2 tsp the first time and all I could taste was salt!! When I remade it with 1/4 tsp it was delicious, as always
Is is 2 tsp or tbsp curry powder….or 2 tsp- 2 tbsp curry powder? I’m excited to make it! =)
Ooh wow, thanks for letting me know about the typo! It’s 2 tablespoons.
That is a really stupid quote….seeing as Obama got his dog from a breeder… http://www.holycowvegan.net/2009/04/obama-dog-coming-from-breeder.html
I posted this a few years ago, before he’d gotten his dog. I was very disappointed as well
.
I just made this and am also making some brown rice. . . . Eating in a few minutes. . . Getting hungry typing! It smalls sooooo good!
