My wife and I love Thai or Indian curry dishes. However, they’re not always the healthiest option because, usually they’re full of unhealthy fats, sodium, and sugar.
So, today I’ve opted to share our own “low carb” versions of one of our curry favorites! This single pan dish is delicious yet super healthy and nourishing. And it’s super easy to put together!
Tools you will need:
