📖 Recipe
Chickpeas with Spinach
adapted from Smitten Kitchen
Ingredients
- 2 cans chickpeas rinsed and drained (½ pound dried chickpeas, cooked)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- a dash red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup tomato paste (about half a small can)
- 1 ½ teaspoon red wine vinegar (though I've used balsamic, too)
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 pound spinach washed
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon juice to taste
- Bread or toast to serve
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot. Add garlic, cumin, red pepper flakes, and smoked paprika, and cook one minute. Add tomato paste, vinegar, and chickpeas, and stir to combine. Once mixture is warm, add spinach. You may want to do this in batches. Stir and cook over medium heat until all the spinach is wilted. Serve over bread or toast.
