If there’s one thing I can’t get enough of on cold days it’s curry.
In the summer I’m all about raw foods, big salads, and frozen treats. But as soon the cold weather rolls in, I make the switch over to warming foods like curry, soups, and stews.
In the winter months, there’s nothing better to keep your body warm that wholesome comforting dishes with a little bit of a spicy kick.
I find that spicy food in the winter really helps warm the body from the inside out. Almost like starting a fire inside!

This was such a cozy and flavorful meal. The sweet potato and pineapple combo worked way better than I expected. It was a little sweet, a little savory, and super satisfying. It came together easily too, which is always a plus on busy nights.
Hi Jess, would this recipe be good with thai red curry paste as well? Thanks in advance!
Hi Natalia, absolutely! Just make sure not to add too much if you don’t want it to be too spicy (Red curry paste can have quite a kick to it!)
