This was an impromptu side dish using ingredients from the cupboard that was a huge success.
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup Israeli Couscous
1 small onion chopped
3 cloves garlic
1 can Garbanzo Beans
1 package of chopped spinach
1 can diced tomatoes
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp sweet paprika
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp turmeric
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Bring 1 3/4 cups of water to a boil and cook couscous according to the package directions. Simmer for no more than 10 minutes – you want to err on the side of al dente.
Meanwhile thaw the spinach in a pan over medium heat then set aside.
Sauté onions 3 minutes on medium high heat until softened. Add chickpeas and cook 5 more minutes. Add tomatoes, garlic, cumin, paprika, turmeric, and cayenne. Stir well to combine.
Mix in couscous and spinach. Serve warm with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt. Enjoy!
