Pineapple tofu Thai curry

This Thai-Inspired Tofu Pineapple Curry is comfort food in a bowl. Sweet, tangy, and full of crunchy veggies for the most refreshing vegan curry you’ve ever tasted!

I am a big fan of Thai food, but anything pineapple works for me! It adds a touch of tangy sweetness that’s the perfect complement to creamy coconut milk and Thai curry spices. This Vegan Tofu Pineapple Curry brings all of the mouthwatering Thai flavors together, plus it’s loaded with rainbow veggies and hearty tofu. 

It is an easy one-pot meal, quick to make, and you can serve it as lunch or dinner. You can enjoy it with brown or wild rice for added carbs or cauliflower rice for a low-carb version.
