Nothing fancy on my weeknight table
Spicy Garbanzo Beans
You will need:
1 large onion
1 red pepper (or substitute 1 cup of frozen stoplight peppers)
3 cloves garlic minced
bit of oil of your choice
1 tsp cumin
2 tsp coriander
1 tsp paprika
1/4-1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
2 cans garbanzo beans
handful of fresh chopped cilantro
add first grouping of ingredients to large skillet, cook on med heat until onions are soft (about 6 minutes)
add spices stir for about a minute, then dump in the cans of beans, cook until heated through, then, put the whole shebang in a serving bowl and stir in the cilantro, yum!
For a yogurt sauce that complements perfectly:
1/2 cup plain yogurt, greek or soy (or substitute 1/2 cup of cashews blended to death in your vitamix)
1/2 cup grated cucumber (make sure to squeeze all the water out or you will make soup)
1 teaspoon paprika (I let this sit in the warm skillet after I dump the beans out to roast it a bit)
salt and pepper to taste
stir together and serve
For dinner last night I added steamed cauliflower (easier for my kids to eat than rice) but we have also eaten this in Ezekial tortillas as a burrito.
Yum! Looks Good. Can't wait to make a header for this sucker!
