We are all about the pantry recipes these days, with fewer trips to the store. I recently was inspired to make this easy coconut Chickpea Curry recipe – sort of a cross between butter chicken but with chickpeas (butter chickpeas?) and chickpea curry.  However, I decided to make it totally vegan by using coconut milk because it is shelf stable and I usually have a few cans of it in my pantry.
Ingredients for chickpea Curry: Onion, garlic, ginger root, cumin, garam masala, paprika, diced tomatoes, coconut milk, garbanzo beans

By using some aromatics like onions, ginger and garlic, along with some spices, we can build some great flavor with very little time and effort.  This is the perfect dinner to make when you forgot to plan dinner until the last minute.  With nothing to thaw, this comes together super quickly.

I decided to throw some baby spinach in here for extra vegetables because I had some, but you can leave it out if you don’t have any.

I served this easy chickpea curry over rice for a nutritious and satisfying dinner.

If you like this easy chickpea curry recipe, you will love my other, more Thai inspired chickpea curry.  While this recipe uses more Indian flavors, my other recipe uses Thai flavors. My goal with this recipe was to use ingredients that most people have easy access to and are easy to store for long periods of time.

    It’s simmering now. Can’t wait to try it. The recipe was super easy to do. I was actually shocked no curry powder needed in this dish.

    AMAZING. This tastes like restaurant Indian curry. It is also so easy to make. I love that it uses basic ingredients. It was also great to sneak in 3 cups of spinach without really tasting it! Perfect for meal prepping or having friends over.
