    Will loves Thai curries so I try to include the ingredients for one on the shopping list every now and then and this vegetarian green curry is one of my favourite versions.

    I think tofu and broccoli are two of my favourite things to put in any type of curry as they really bulk it out while keeping it super healthy and good for you.

    The sauce for this curry is a simple combination of store bought curry paste and coconut milk with a few extra goodies thrown in for bags of flavour.

    It's a super simple recipe which you could use with any of your favourite curry ingredients.

    Why we love this vegetarian Thai green curry...

    It's such a simple and easy recipe which takes just 20-30 minutes from start to finish which means you can make it on the busiest of weeknights.

    You can make it using whatever ingredients you like including meat if you prefer or you could skip the tofu and stick to all your favourite veggies.

    This recipe is also great for leftovers and makes a delicious lunch the next day.

    It's also a healthy vegetarian/vegan recipe which we just love for a meatless Monday!
