Why We Like It

We admit there’s a lot of chopping required for this dish. But that just means you get to rally the troops for some family bonding time in the kitchen! Get ready for great lessons and conversations you would never have otherwise. As we like to say, “It’s more than better nutrition. It’s a revolutionary, bonding lifestyle for the whole family!” Besides, as one of our all time favorite curry dishes, these over-the-top flavors will surprise everyone, and they will be happy they contributed!
