Vegan Lentil Curry

The perfect meal for a rainy night - high in protein, full of veggies and spices that make you feel nourished and cozy. Can be served alone or with a side of grain of choice.

Serves 3-4

The prep:

1. In a large pan, add onion and let cook for a few minutes. Next add carrots and celery, season with salt and pepper. Add garlic, broccoli and sweet potato. Continue to cook for about 5 minutes.

2. Add curry powder blend over veggies and saute. Add lentils, water and coconut milk. Season with more salt and pepper.
