Happy Monday!! Today I thought I’d share one of those accidental recipes when you clean out the fridge and end up with a really tasty meal. I love curry, I know it’s not for everyone but if you start out in small doses it’s super delish and won’t overpower the dish. This is a quick and easy meal that will leave you feeling satisfied 🙂

Not a veggie but love chick pea curry – would you ever cook dry ones?
Hi! Yes, I do make my own chickpeas from dried beans, you can check out my post on there here: http://thehappyhealthfreak.com/2013/09/20/trash-the-cans-and-make-your-own-chickpeas/.
Although, I don’t do it ALL the time, sometimes I go for canned for the convenience 🙂
Thanks I will have a read just made a chilli with dried pinto beans and a bit of dark chocolate!
Oh that sounds really good!!
It was – oh and used tomatoes provided by the in lawsa!
I’m doing one of those ‘clean out the fridge’ things right now – it won’t be as wholesome as this one though…
It’s always good fun! You just never know what you might end up with – it could be your next masterpiece!
