Trader Joe’s Tuesday: Vegetable Panang Curry


Trader Joe’s Vegetable Panang Curry


Tastes Like:
  Slightly sweet (coconut?) surry with a nice medley of vegetables over AMAZING RICE.  I am not usually a rice fan, but when rice is done well, it’s excellent.  And this rice that you cook in the microwave is excellent.

Great With:  A little extra-firm tofu thrown in.  Or not.  This is a fully-realized meal all on its own!

Perfect For:  Gluten-free vegans, single-portion “not-takeout,” a splashy office lunch (provided your office has a microwave.

Must Know:  Vegan AND no Gluten ingredients used!  SCORE!  Now, the down and dirty:  the container boasts two compartments:  one for the rice, one for the veggies/sauce.  I find it’s easier to eat this in a bowl – scoop the rice out, then carefully pour the veggies/sauce on top.

Costs: 
$2.99, which is considerably cheaper than ordering delivery or running down to the bodega for a salad during the day for lunch.  It’s nice to have in your freezer for that day when you just can’t even and cook it up in 4 minutes.
