These 5 recipes freeze well so you can batch cook 2 of them on the weekend and freeze half your portions for the following week and have different lunches on alternate days for the week. There’s a mix of flavours at play here and all the curries are made from scratch with minimal effort.
I’ve included vegan, vegetarian and omnivore recipes and highlighted what’s what for you to keep things simple. if you’re doing a curry that contains meat I’d highly recommend your second curry is a vegetarian one to mix it up and make sure you get your vegetable intake up. That said the meat one’s contain plenty of vegetables too!
Batch cooking two recipes on the weekend or at the start of the week is a really efficient way to prepare your lunches for the week.You can simplify your life by getting it all out of the way in one go and they all freeze well so you wont be risking any food waste if you decide to eat something else for lunch that week.
I love eating different things throughout the week and it’s also really great for you gut to get variation throughout the week so cooking 2 means both you and your gut will stay excited about what you’re eating. Yep I just said your gut will be excited, I’m sorry.
Obviously if you love eating the same thing every day you could just go with doing one batch cook recipe a week, if you’re this way inclined it’s super important to at least vary your dinners so that you’re eating a vide variety of plant foods across the week.
Now for those curries:
Sweet Potato, Peanut and Red Lentil Curry: There’s a reason this is one of the most popular curry recipes on the blog, it’s vegan super easy and really delicious.
Lamb, Eggplant and Almond Curry: this lamb curry shows off one of the best ways to eat meat, slow cooked and easy on your digestion. It’s also incredibly tasty and comforting.
Cauliflower and Potato Vegan Massaman Curry: I love a massaman curry and this vegan version hits all the right notes.
Vegetarian Tikka Masala: This vegetarian yoghurt and tomato based curry is simple and delicious and another one of the most popular recipes on the blog, not just in the curry category!
Fragrant Dahl with Chickpeas, Zucchini and Spinach: I thought we needed a different colour in here and this beautiful green laced dahl is a winner.
