Curries are the epitome of comfort and cozy vibes during the dead of winter, but let’s face it- we crave summer during that time. This mango-coconut curry satisfies the depth and richness that’s necessary during sub-zero temperatures while exuding tropical vibes to get you through an extra 6 weeks of winter. Serve with your favorite protein (crispy tofu for two, please) and a wedge of lime for a perfect weeknight meal inside.

Low effort meals scream my name during the winter. Nothing beats coming home from the actual arctic to a meal already prepped and spiced for you to devour that evening. This orzo bowl is perfectly spiced with the warming flavors of curry and packed with creamy, tangy flavors of coconut and lime. All that’s needed is some roast time for your favorite winter produce, like butternut squash and eggplant, to complete this nutritious meal.

The perfect lentil curry provides heat, a hint of sweetness, and is packed full of flavor (thanks to the endless list of spices used). This version, inspired by the flavors used in a typical lamb and prune tagine dish, makes use of cinnamon and raisins like the Moroccan dish. Paired with eggplant that provides a home for all the juices to soak into, this dish is sure to be full of flavor, sweetness, and a truly wonderful experience to eat.
