30 min Sri Lankan Meatball Curry

Creamy | Coconut Curry | high protein

This 15-minute white bean kale salad is the quick, feel-good dish you didn’t know you needed! It’s loaded with creamy white beans, shredded kale, crunchy cabbage, and fresh parsley for that herby kick. The real star? A simple, cozy dressing made with mayo, parmesan, olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt—nothing fancy, just big flavour. It’s hearty, protein-packed, and totally hits the spot whether you’re throwing together lunch or need a lazy side dish that still feels kinda fancy.
