Easy Coconut Shrimp Curry

If you’re anything like me you’re always looking for healthy weeknight meals that taste awesome, but don’t take forever to make. I like to spend time in the kitchen (obvi, considering this blog is about 75% food), but even I can’t tolerate recipes that take longer than 30 minutes on a weeknight. Mostly because I’m typically starving come dinner time, but also because I’d much rather spend my evening going for a walk with Olive, doing a house project or relaxing with Isaac.
One Pan Shrimp Curry

For this reason I gravitate toward quick, one-pan recipes like this coconut shrimp curry! With a help of jarred red curry paste, you can easily toss together this flavorful dish in less than 20 minutes! It’s loaded with nutrient-dense veggies, the shrimp offers a good source of protein and the healthy fat from the coconut milk makes the dish extra creamy, satisfying and filling.

How to Serve This Shrimp Curry

It works great served over a whole grain like quinoa or brown rice. I actually used a blend of both. If you’re grain-free or looking for a low-carb option, cauliflower rice will work too.
