CURRIED CHICKPEA SALAD PITAS

Steps:

• Add the mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon juice, curry powder, honey, salt and pepper to a food processor. Pulse a few times to combine. Add the chickpeas and pulse until the chickpeas are slightly smashed, 5 or 6 more times.
• Empty the mixture into a serving bowl. Fold in the raisins and cilantro until everything is fully coated. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve in a pita with cabbage mix and Ryan's Pickled Onions.
• Add the onions, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, sugar, peppercorns, salt and 1 cup water to a glass pint jar. Stir or shake well to mix. Let marinate overnight in the refrigerator, then keep for up to a month in the fridge.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet, med. to med. high heat.
• Add the green onions, green peppers, red peppers and mushrooms.
• Saute for approximately 4 minutes.
• Add 1/2 can of soup, curry (I use 1 t. but you can add up to 2 t. if you want the curry flavor to predominate), salt and pepper.
• Let sauce cook and thicken. (Approx. 5 minutes , you judge as to when the sauce thickens up for you.).
• Add shrimp.
• Add heavy cream. If it's too thick, you can add a little more heavy cream.
• Simmer for about 8 minutes, or until the shrimp is cooked through.
• Serve atop cooked wild rice (you can use white rice, if you prefer).
• Enjoy!

CURRIED SHRIMP AND CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Heat coconut oil in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add onions and saute until tender and translucent, about 8 minutes. Add garlic, curry powder and tomato paste and saute to toast the curry powder and warm the tomato paste, about 2 minutes. Add corncobs, half the corn kernels, chicken stock, coconut milk, tamarind paste, brown sugar and salt. Stir to combine, bring to a low boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes, then remove cobs and discard. Transfer, in batches, to a blender and blend until completely smooth. (See Cook's Note.)
• Return soup to the pot and bring back to a low simmer. Add shrimp, lime juice and remaining corn. Simmer until shrimp is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Garnish with cilantro and Fresno chile and serve.
