High-Protein Lentil and Chickpea Vegetable Curry
Aromatic lentils and chickpeas simmered in a spiced tomato sauce with cubes of firm tofu, finished with a cooling dollop of creamy yogurt.
INGREDIENTS
0.5 cup brown lentils, cooked
0.5 cup chickpeas, cooked
6 oz extra firm tofu
0.5 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup tomato puree
1 cup fresh spinach
0.25 cup yellow onion, diced
1 tsp curry powder
0.5 tsp turmeric
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
0.5 tsp fresh ginger, grated
PREPARATION
Press the extra firm tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cut into small 1/2-inch cubes.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Add the curry powder, turmeric, sea salt, and black pepper to the skillet, stirring for 30 seconds to lightly toast the spices.
Pour in the tomato puree, cooked lentils, and chickpeas, stirring well to coat the legumes in the spice mixture.
Gently fold the tofu cubes into the sauce and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and stir for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted.
Transfer the curry to a bowl and top with a generous dollop of non-fat Greek yogurt before serving.
