Here’s another curry dish by my wonderful hubby. There are some days I just don’t feel like cooking so my hubby will whip out his cook book and make a delicious low fat curry dish. This here is Mung Bean Curry and its 100% vegetarian friendly and totally waste line friendly two. 1 full cup of this yummy curry is a whopping 3 weight watchers points (old system). Add a 1/2 cup of rice to the mix and you will have a complete healthy dinner.
