Slow Cooker Cashew Thai Curry

This savory Thai curry simmers throughout the day in your slow cooker, so it’s ready when you come home after a busy day at school and work. For added protein, you can mix in a can of drained and rinsed garbanzo beans.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, cubed
  • 4 carrots, cut on the diagonal
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (11-ounce) carton original nutpods
  • 2 tablespoons yellow Thai curry paste or mild yellow curry powder
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the broth, nutpods, curry, sugar, garlic, lime leaves, and ginger.
  3. Pour the curry mixture over the top of vegetables and stir gently to combine. Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours or High for 4 hours, until potatoes are tender.
