30 minute meal prep! This delicious meal is for my busy followers or those who love to batch cook! I created this meal prep so that it’s quick, can be easily followed, keeps well in the fridge or freezer and of course has lots of plant based protein!
Let me know if you want more meal prep videos in the comments down below and how I can improve them. I just want to provide the best and most helpful content for you.
Ingredients:
Curry:
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
4 tbsp curry powder
1 large can (28 oz) diced tomatoes
2 cups water
1 can of coconut milk (full fat or light)
2 cups dried red lentils
1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup frozen peas
1-2 tsp salt to taste
Quinoa
2 cups quinoa
3 1/2 cups vegetable broth (or water)
Sautéed Vegetables:
2 bell peppers, sliced
1 onion, sliced
2 cups broccoli (frozen or fresh)
1-2 tsp garlic powder
1-2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp cumin
Directions:
1. Sauté chopped onion and garlic together in a large saucepan for approx. 5 minutes.
2. Add curry powder and sauté for another 3-5 mins.
3. Add diced tomatoes, water, canned coconut, red lentils and chickpeas.
4. Bring to a boil and turn down to simmer and cook for about 20 mins.
5. Rinse quinoa (I like to use a whisk when doing this) and add to pot with 3 1/2 cups of vegetable broth (or water). Cover and cook for 12-15 mins. Remove from heat when done liquid is absorbed, cover and let sit for 5 minutes.
6. On medium heat, sauté sliced vegetables together in a separate saucepan with garlic, onion, and cumin powder for approx. 10 minutes or until soft. Remove from heat and let cool.
7. The curry is done when the red lentils are fully cooked. This should take about 20 minutes. Mix in frozen peas and salt and remove from heat. Let cool.
Allow everything to cool and lay out your meal prep containers*. To make 5 servings add about 1 cup of quinoa, 1 1/2 cups of curry and 1 cup of cooked veg to each container. Refrigerate or freeze and enjoy!
*Glass is best to use, but if you are using plastic, make sure to put the meal into a glass or ceramic bowl before reheating.
