At the moment, we're trying to show you more of what we really eat during the week (like here and here), because cakes and junk food are great for 5 minutes but there's more to life, you know :D

So, to take care of your little body, we thought our recipe for squash and chickpea curry could be just what you need! Generally, we all have these ingredients at home; it's always more or less the same base: onion, vegetables, broth, jarred crushed tomatoes, canned coconut milk, rice, legumes, spices... Sometimes we add sweet potatoes to this recipe, and it makes enough for several meals, perfect for taking to work and all that ;)

By the way, if you need more meal ideas for the week, we share quite a few stories of our meals on Instagram!

Steps

Peel the onion and thinly slice it. Peel the butternut squash and dice it. Peel the garlic clove and mince it.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot and sweat the onion in it. Add the garlic and spices. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the squash and chickpeas, and sauté for a few more minutes.
Pour the vegetable broth (+ salt if unsalted) and the crushed tomatoes. Let cook for 40 minutes on medium heat.
Meanwhile, cook the rice in water.
Optional: You can add one or two oven-roasted sweet potatoes to your Dutch oven!
Pour the coconut milk into the vegetable stew and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve with a bit of rice!
