An aromatic turmeric-ginger curry with chickpeas, sweet potato, and spinach — 420 kcal, 14 g of fiber, and roughly 200 mg of curcumin in a fully vegan dinner. Ready in 35 minutes in one pot.

Ingredients (1 serving)

  • Chickpeas, cooked — 150 g
  • Sweet potato — 150 g
  • Baby spinach — 80 g
  • Coconut milk, light — 100 ml
  • Turmeric, ginger, cumin — 1 tsp each
  • Tomato, crushed — 100 g

Macros per serving

  • Calories: 420 kcal
  • Protein: 16 g
  • Fat: 9 g
  • Carbs: 68 g
  • Fiber: 14 g

Key micronutrients

  • Curcumin: ~200 mg (from turmeric)
  • Fiber: ~14 g
  • Vitamin A: ~700 µg RAE (from sweet potato)
  • Iron: ~5 mg

Why it earns a spot in the rotation

  • Curcumin dose. Roughly 200 mg of curcumin from the turmeric — pairing turmeric with a fat source (coconut milk) supports better absorption than turmeric taken alone.
  • Fiber density. 14 g of fiber from chickpeas, sweet potato, and spinach in a single bowl — well above what most single dinners deliver.
  • Fully plant-based. No animal products; chickpeas supply meaningful plant protein alongside the fiber load.
  • Low effort. One pot, 35 minutes, pantry staples.
