This is my own concoction that I throw together every once in a while. I made it last night and had leftovers today. I absolutely LOVE making and eating it. This is what I do:
~ Start stir-frying the onions, gardlic, carrots, and green peppers until the carrots are softish. I add the curry powder, cumin, and turmeric while it’s all cooking together.
~ I then put in the chickpeas and stewed tomatoes, and add some more curry powder and cumin. And then add a little salt. Let it simmer until the rice is done…. Voila! Crystal’s Chickpea Curry! So easy, nutritious, and tasty!
I usually eat it with brown rice, which I start at least 15 minutes before I start stirfrying the vegetables.
In total, I made enough for 4 servings, which would be about 12 grams of protein from the stirfry and rice together. Last night I had two servings and today I ate two servings as well.
