Sweet Potato Coconut Curry

Writer: Herbal HarpyHerbal Harpy


This is one of my go-to recipes when I'm food prepping my week's lunch. This vegan curry is sweetened with yam, and the broccoli makes it a great source of fiber. While this recipe utilizes curry powder, the end result is not spicy. It tastes delicious with rice or quinoa, and also as a wrap! (Use low-carb tortillas for a lighter option).


Just throw the ingredients in a saucepan, stir, and allow it to stew for 20 minutes. Your light and filling lunch for this week is all set!
