One of the best things about this curry is that it’s actually easy to make and this version uses ingredients that can all be found in your local grocery store. So no need for hunting down obscure ingredients that you only use once and then leave in the back of the cupboard for years.

Highlighted Reviews

“Outstanding! There are few products as deserving of a 5 star rating as Plan to Eat. I spent years trying to figure out the secret to meal planning. I’d spend hours making a plan and getting a grocery list together. “It shouldn’t be this hard!” Last Saturday I had a 15-30 minute window and realized I needed the grocery list for next week because I was going to be near the store soon. I didn’t really think I’d get it done, but I totally did and it’s been a delicious week! Thanks, PTE!”

“This app has changed and simplified our meal routine. It is straightforward, easy to use, and I can’t imagine living without it. One of the things that is the best about this app is that it enables me to quickly move recipes off Pinterest and into the app so that I don’t have to contend with the constant advertising that is on blogs these days.”
