Chickpea and Veggie Coconut Curry

I love experimenting in the kitchen and had a craving for a coconut curry dish. I wanted something quick and vegetarian that everyone would love....and I think I found a keeper!

This one pan dinner takes less than 20 minutes to make, is a vegan meal option, and is absolutely delicious. It's not only packed with flavour, but also antioxidants, protein, and fibre. This meal will leave you feeling satisfied afterwards, which means less potential for evening snacking.

Serves 4

Ingredients:
