This one-pot curry is not only quick and easy but also packed with nutrients, fiber, and plant-based protein. The combination of butternut squash, chickpeas, and a rich coconut curry sauce makes it perfect for busy moms who need a wholesome meal on the table fast!
In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent (about 5 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the cubed butternut squash and curry powder, coating the squash in the spices for about 2 minutes.
Add the coconut milk and diced tomatoes (with their juices). Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Stir in the chickpeas and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the butternut squash is tender.
Serve the curry on its own or over rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice for an extra dose of fiber and protein.
Garnish the curry with fresh cilantro, pomegranate seeds, and cashew cream before serving.
