This Lentil Cauliflower Curry is Great for Meal Prep

When I think about what to prep for lunch and dinner the week ahead, the first thing that usually comes to my mind is curry. That's because curry is not only super easy to make, it is also a meal that can be easily reheated. It might even taste better on the second day.
To make a nutritious and filling curry, I usually choose one plant-based protein source (like chickpeas, lentils, tofu...) and one or more veggies (like cauliflower, carrots, potatoes, spinach, peppers, broccoli...).

How to Make This Lentil Cauliflower Curry

This lentil cauliflower curry is made with roasted cauliflower. I had this idea when I was making this 3-day meal prep and was using the oven to roast potatoes, chickpeas and a few veggies. So to save time (and dishes) I thought why not throw the cauliflower in as well?
And I actually quite liked the taste of the roasted cauliflower in this curry. You put the cauliflower in the oven, then prepare the curry and in the end, add the roasted cauliflower to the pan.
