Moroccan-Style Dinner Tonight!



Dinner tonight... Want something fast, easy, tasty, and hearty? Try this tasty dish.


INGREDIENTS
1 can (15.5 oz)chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 can tomatoes with green chilies **
1/2 cup diced onions
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp ground cumin
1/2 tbsp ground ginger
1 tbsp ground coriander
3/4 cup vegetable broth
Salt and pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS
Saute garlic and onion in olive oil over medium heat for about two minutes.
Stir in cumin, ginger and coriander.
Cook until onion is tender.
Add chickpeas, vegetable broth and tomatoes with juice and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for ten minutes.
Serve alone or over brown rice or over fresh spinach or over steamed vegetables.

**When I made it tonight I only had canned diced tomatoes and canned green chilies. I added 7 oz green chilies to 28 oz of diced tomatoes for a double batch (doubling all the other ingredients as well). Reduce chilies for less spice.
