Vegan chickpea tikka masala

Cooking as part of my job means that I — thankfully — don’t have to rely on too much take-out to keep myself and my fiancé fed. However, no matter how much food I’ve prepared at home, we have one serious take-out weak spot — Indian food. Seriously.

Try this hearty, vegetarian twist on the classic Stroganoff. It’s creamy, cozy and just as easy to whip up as a meal for one as it is for a crowd. It’s that odd time of year when spring and winter seem to change guard every other day. We’re celebrating the arrival of longer days, yet we’re still bundled up in bulky sweaters and wool socks. The mushrooms substituting for meat make this meal filling without adding too much heaviness. You’ll be satisfied, yet still up for activity should spring decide it’s taking a late day shift.
