neverhomemaker: Weeknight Meals: Vegetarian Tikka Masala

I keep posting photos of myself making this meal on Instagram, but I don't think I've ever formally written out the recipe on the blog. We make this Tikka Masala in the crock pot at least once every two weeks, if not more frequently. It's highly adaptable, so if you have other veggies on hand that you think would work -- use them!

Oh, and I should note that this recipe is made using sauce from Aldi. Here's where you can find all my other Aldi tips, tricks, and recipes.

VEGETARIAN TIKKA MASALA

1 can chickpeas
1 large onion (approx 1 cup), chopped
1 large sweet potato (approx 1 to 1.5 cups), chopped*
1 to 1.5 cups frozen peas
1 jar Tikka Masala sauce from Aldi

* I often use carrots or white potatoes in place of sweet potatoes.

Then just toss everything in your crock pot and cook on high for 3 hours. If you want to get extra fancy, you can make your own paneer, which is an Indian simple cheese you can easily make at home. And your own naan, which is Indian bread to have on the side.
