Sometimes you stumble across a recipe that has you so excited for leftovers that you could just eat it all week. And those are the recipes we meal prep, friends. Because I’m on a forever quest to make vegan/vegetarian meal prep that doesn’t suck (see Stuffed Pepper Meal Prep, Stir Fry Meal Prep, Burrito Bowl Meal Prep).

So when I first made this Chickpea Tikka Masala I new it was bound for vegan meal prep infamy. The curry is so rich and creamy, perfect with a few slices of naan and a mound of rice!
