Chickpeas, coconut milk, and a few other simple ingredients slow cooker together in this flavorful vegan/vegetarian curry.
Cookbook recipe! This is one of the recipes found in my cookbook, The Easy & Healthy Slow Cooker Cookbook. Kind of. It’s 99% a cookbook recipe. I made one modification – I used canned diced tomatoes rather than roma tomatoes and I added a tad bit more salt. The rest of the recipe is the same.
If I had to pick which cuisines contribute most to this dish, I would say Thai and Indian. These two cuisines make some of the best curries around, and this recipe incorporates both. This isn’t a particularly pretty recipe. It basically looks the same after you cook it as it does beforehand.
This dish is vegan but not lacking in flavor. Full-fat coconut milk (or coconut cream) replaces the dairy but provides a wonderful creaminess.

I’d love to try this! I’m trying to be more healthy and loosely following Paleo so this might fit well with that. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Omg can we say yum?!?! I’m all about slow cooker recipes this time of year, so I will definitely be giving this a try
This does look delicious. And my daughter really would love the chickpeas although I am curious as to how the chickpeas come out in a soup. Usually I just have them in salads or in humus.
I definitely wouldn’t miss the meat with this one! I love chickpeas and coconut! This is such a great combination of flavors 🙂
This looks like it would taste amazing and be healthy. I need to throw this one together for sure.
Yum! I love heartier recipes, especially with the cooler weather in my neck of the woods.
Sounds like a delicious combination of ingredients! I just love chickpeas, they are so filing. Thanks for sharing 🙂

Ooh this look super yummy. I’ve been searching for more meatless meals.
I have some chickpeas in my pantry that I’ve been need to use. I will try this as I love curry as long as it is not too spicy.

Chickpeas have recently become a staple at my house. Mainly for hummus, but it’s nice to know I have them on hand to try this recipe. It’s perfect for the dipping temperatures today.
I love using chickpeas. I made roasted chickpeas a few weeks ago and they came out way too hard. I’m going to stick to slow cooking them and can’t wait to try this recipe.
I cant wait to try this Indian dish in my slow cooker- I love curry
