Plant Based Comfort Food: Vegetable & Lentil Curry

Potato Lentil Curry

This dish is the perfect hearty plant-based meal! Filled with vegetables, legumes, and spices that create an explosion on your taste buds. Made with love and creativity for an all around satisfying bowl of goodness!

Suggestions:

Perfect for dinner or lunch as this meal is VERY filling. For an even heavier dish feel free to add rice on the side!

I made this curry on a snowy winter night, made a cup of tea, and snuggled up in my warm covers with a sappy romance movie. Plant based goodness. All though food is not meant for the comfort of our emotions, a hearty and delicious meal (especially when it’s plant-based) can bring healing vibes.

Enjoy!

NOTES:

Seasoning measurements vary dependent on personal palette. I added a ton of curry seasoning and paprika for an intense and mildly spicy flavor! Add measurements and keep adding until desired flavored has been reached!
