Chef Meg's Slow Cooker Vegetable Curry



Introduction

Slow cookers aren't just for meat! This is a tasty, affordable one-pot vegetarian meal that's filling and perfect for your slow cooker. You can also add shrimp during the last 20 minutes of cooking. If the dish is a little too spicy for the kids, add 1 Tablespoon of plain yogurt to their serving. Serve with a glass of milk and a cucumber salad. Slow cookers aren't just for meat!

    This is one of my favorite meals ever. I like to add quinoa or mung beans for a complete protein boost. It also adds a nice texture because with all the potatoes and beans it can be a bit mushy. Also good with zucchini or butternut squash. - 6/9/11

    This was absolutely delicious! I used the russet potatoes that we already had at the house and cooked it for about 3 hours on high instead of 5.5 on low because I waited too long to start cooking it, but it was still delicious. I'll definitely be making this again! :) - 11/30/12

    This was a big hit tonight. I added shrimp and had to substitute zucchini for the green beans due to an allergy.
    also added a bay leaf even though list of ingredients did not call for it. served it with whole wheat naan. My husband, the meat and potatoes guy gave it an a+. Yea! - 9/30/11

    Tastes good- I didn't understand about the bay leaf. (Never said to put one in- or when). I made it without Bay leaf and it was good .
    Used the hint about serving with yogurt- yummy ! - 9/14/11

    This was excellent. I accidentally added too much cayenne. Next time I will definitely add less. I also added a package of chicken tenderloins. - 9/10/11

    Made this for a potluck with a group of friends. It was a hit. I cut the potatoes in chunks about 3/4 inch square, added another 1/2 tbl curry, doubled the tumeric, used 2 bay leaves, a 1/2 tsp cumin, and a handful of coarsely chopped fresh Spinach leaves with the stems removed, about 1.5 inch. - 11/25/10
