Rajma Chawal (Kidney Bean Curry)

Guest blog and recipe by Emily Hill @wonderwhyimfat.

Rajma Chawal is the ultimate comfort food of North India. It’s a soulful combination of spiced kidney beans (rajma) and rice (chawal). This dish is not only packed with protein and fiber but is also super easy to whip up with ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.

Kidney beans are rich in plant-based protein, making this a great option for vegetarians and vegans. Both kidney beans and rice are excellent sources of fiber, promoting good digestion as well. Especially when you add in your capsules of Just Thrive Probiotic, you are getting a gut healthy meal!

I love having this for lunch or a quick dinner because it’s really easy to reheat, and it doesn’t make me sleepy afterwards! Plus, it’s filled with nutritious ingredients that I can feel good about.

This dish is completely customizable based on your spice preferences. You can adjust the spices, use brown rice for added nutrients, or even add vegetables like spinach or carrots for a wholesome twist.

Here’s how to make a healthy and delicious version of rajma chawal in no time. Serve the rajma hot over a bed of fluffy rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lemon, or sliced onions for an extra burst of flavor.
