This bowl is packed with vegetables and also packed with flavor! I don’t eat curry much, but every time I do I am reminded of how much I love it. It’s almost sweet, and savory at the same time. So I made a cauliflower rice bowl and topped it with delicious coconut curry vegetables. This dish is dairy free and gluten free – just make sure you use gluten free soy sauce! I used curry powder in this recipe, but I do recommend curry paste – it has more flavor and it will give you a deeper and more vibrant color. I ALMOST bought red curry paste.. so sad I didn’t. Curry powder gives it a curry flavor, but it is different – keep that in mind!
