THAI-INSPIRED YELLOW CURRY w/ Tofu

Day 3 of 30 Days of Healthier Meals

Better than takeout, save your money and your calories… and make this Thai-inspired macro friendly yellow curry instead! It couldn’t be easier or more customizable. I’m using tofu as my protein but you could easily use chicken or beef. This is a TJ’s hack with their pre-made curry pastes and and instead of the traditional coconut cream which is much higher in fat, we’re using nut milk and greek yogurt. It’s creamy and cuts the heat while making this dish a lot lighter yet still so creamy.

This dish is inspired by my friend @_alexispatterson ❤️’s recipe!

Ingredients:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 zucchini, small chop
1 bell pepper, small chop
1/2 onion, small chop
1/2 tsp salt
1 jar Trader Joe’s yellow curry
1 jar Trader Joe’s red curry
1 cup nut milk (I used almond)
3/4 cup greek yogurt
1/2 lemon

1 block firm tofu
2 tbsp terriyaki sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp onion powder

Directions:
Chop small veg of your choice - I prefer onion, zuch and bell pepper. Add to heavy bottom pan with the olive oil and salt. Sauté until tender, about 3-5 mins. To the same pan, add your curry jars and the milk and greek yogurt. Bring to a simmer and add the lemon juice.
While this is simmering, cut your tofu into small bite size pieces, pat dry, and add to a sautee pan with olive oil, salt and onion powder. Cook, flipping constantly, for about 3 minutes. Finish with teriyaki sauce. Then add into the pot of curry.
Serve with rice and naan!
