RECIPE INGREDIENTS

INGREDIENT NOTES & SUBSTITUTIONS
Trader Joe’s Thai Style Red Curry Sauce: This is a shelf-stable sauce found near the canned items at Trader Joe’s.
Protein: Need this recipe to be vegetarian? No problem! This curry is great with tofu and/or chickpeas, too if you want to swap or add protein. Note: The Trader Joe’s red curry sauce contains egg yolks (go figure!) so it is not considered vegan.
Veggies: You can mix and match the veggies however you like! I love the bell peppers, but I will often add green beans, sugar snap peas, and carrots.
Basil: Italian basil or Thai basil are just fine–just don’t leave this out! The fresh herbs truly make this dish special!
