Vegetable curry
Vegetable curry is one of my favorite vegetarian dishes and
a great way to use broccoli and cauliflower. Carrots are another delicious
addition, but I just used what I had on hand!

To make this dish you will need:
¼ cup pecans, toasted
½ cup onion, diced
1 tablespoon oil
Salt and pepper
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons curry paste
16 ounce can low-fat coconut milkOne head of broccoli, rinsed and broken into flowerets
One head of cauliflower, rinsed and broken into flowerets
I hate to wash dishes, so I did all the steps for this dish
in one pot. Use a large stockpot and heat the oil over medium
heat. Add the pecans and cook until they are lightly toasted.
Remove the
nuts and cool on a paper-lined plate.
To the pan add the onion and cook until it is translucent.
Add salt, pepper, red pepper and curry paste to the onions.
Stir all to combine.
Add coconut milk and blend completely.
Add broccoli and cauliflower, and cook for about 10
minutes.
Before serving, crumble the toasted pecans and sprinkle on
top.
