Vegan
Now, I am no chef by any means necessary! I am just a mom and wife trying to feed her family delicious and healthy food. My husband and I decided to go vegan after watching several documentaries about the health and environmental benefits of a plant-based diet. It was a big change for us, but we started experimenting with new recipes and exploring different plant-based food options. Over time, we both noticed positive changes in our health and energy levels. It’s been a journey of learning and adapting, but we’re both happy with our decision to embrace a somewhat, vegan lifestyle as we don’t eat as much meat as we used to.
I love to experiment with new and different ideas for dinner and sometimes, I always amaze myself. One fall recipe that impresses me is yummy golden potatoes with butter curry sauce! The rich, velvety texture and warm, earthy flavors make it a comforting choice for chilly autumn days. Add onions, and red and orange peppers to give it a sweet kick and a boost in flavor (Also makes for a pop of color with the autumn season). Pair it with a crusty slice of Italian loaf bread for a satisfying dinner that’s simple and elegant.

Butter Chicken Curry Pasta
I love pasta! It is one of my favorite dishes. And I’m always trying different ways to make a hearty dish with them. Pasta with curry sauce is a delightful combination of Italian and Indian flavors. The al dente pasta pairs perfectly with the creamy and aromatic curry sauce, creating a comforting and exotic dish. The rich curry sauce coats each piece of pasta, delivering a fusion of flavors with every bite. The combination of these two culinary traditions results in a dish that is truly unique and satisfying. Whether you prefer a mild or spicy curry, you can customize this dish to suit your taste. This makes it a versatile and delicious meal option.
Sometimes I like to mix different pastas. It depends on the cooking time of each type of pasta so be mindful if you decide to do so.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Pasta of your choice
- 1 tsp Olive oil
- Salt
- 6 cups water
- 1/2 Burman’s curry sauce
- Parsley
- Parmesan (optional)
- 1/4 cup any spaghetti sauce (optional)
Instructions
Cook time: 10 mins
Servings: 5
- Boil water in a medium-sized pot over high heat and add salt and olive oil. The oil keeps the noodles from sticking together.
- Cook pasta according to instructions on pack/box.
- Drain pasta and add 1/2 curry sauce. Mix well until pasta is coated and sprinkle on the parsley and parmesan for the finishing touches.
- Serve and enjoy! 😋
*The noodles can get a little dry so what I like to do is add a little bit more olive oil and a little bit of spaghetti sauce*
These are some ideas to inspire your fall cooking adventures. If you’re an experienced chef or a beginner in the kitchen, preparing and enjoying seasonal meals is special. They capture the essence of autumn. So, grab your apron and get ready to savor the season’s flavors! What do you think of these recipes?
