This Chickpea Curry is such an easy, healthy weeknight dinner idea! It’s a cheap, healthy, vegan meal that comes together in a half an hour. The creamy coconut milk makes it rich and luxurious with a slightly sweet flavor, and the tomatoes and lime juice add bright acidity to round it out. Taking an extra few minutes to slightly caramelize the onions and garlic add so much flavor to this simple recipe, along with the curry powder, cinnamon, and cumin.
This chickpea curry may be vegan, but even meat lovers will love it for its heartiness and flavor. There are so many reasons to eat more plants and many people have been opting to eat a plant-based diet for a few reasons – health, environmental, and cost.
Chickpeas are a healthy, CHEAP plant-based protein that are a crowd pleaser. My kids ate this up so fast! The flavors in this chickpea curry work so well together, with the unique spice blend that includes cinnamon, and slightly caramelized onions and garlic that lend sweetness to the whole thing.
And I love that the bulk of this recipe uses pantry ingredients – a can of chickpeas, a can of diced tomatoes, a can of coconut milk, and rice for serving if you want.
