Can't-Get-Enough Curry

This week's new recipe was absolutely delicious so thought I'd share, in case there are other curry lovers out there. It comes from my latest favorite magazine Real Simple. Last month, they featured several yummy crock-pot creations and I stashed a few in my recipe binder. This mag was swapped in to replace my InStyle when Ezra was born. A mark of maturity, maybe?! I'm sure I'll eventually re-add InStyle...when I can actually fit into my clothes longer than a few months! ;)
