Everyone needs a good vegetable curry recipe in their life. This is my keto vegan version and it’s a winner guys. It’s full of nourishing goodness and perfectly spiced to give a little kick without being too hot. You can of course addw more chilli if you’re hardcore! It’s low in carbs and high in nutrients, especially electrolytes, thanks to a combination of 6 vegetables, plus lots of healthy fats.
You know a curry is good right when you just look at the deep colour of the sauce and want to drink it?! This is one of those. Pair with cauliflower rice for the ultimate keto vegetarian meal the whole family will enjoy.
This veggie curry also freezes well so if you make up a batch, pop the leftovers in the freezer and take out when you need a healthy dinner on the fly! Just like most vegetarian and vegan meals, it’s not as low in carbs as most keto-friendly recipes but it’s still great for those who follow a low carb diet. I hope you enjoy it.
