Chickpeas And Rice

Features:
    Cuisine:

    A really good equivalent to the stock standard rice and tuna for lunch! Had most of the ingredients in the cupboard but had to leave out the thyme, bay leaf and parsley. It was still great. Also left out the butter as suggested by another review. A nice, healthy lunch.

    Chickpeas and Rice, This is a recipe that I got from a vegetarian cookbook and made a few modifications to We have fallen for this dish and now make it a few times a month My two year old also loves it We tried it out on some non-vegetarians and they all loved it , A really good equivalent to the stock standard rice and tuna for lunch! Had most of the ingredients in the cupboard but had to leave out the thyme, bay leaf and parsley It was still great Also left out the butter as suggested by another review A nice, healthy lunch , We loved this as a main dish and plan to have it often The recipe is a sturdy and flexible base I did not have parsley, so used chopped green onions and arugula; chopped unseeded fresh tomato instead of sun dried (which I didn’t have and don’t much like) Next time I’ll probably lay in some parsley but would like to try spinach, as some of the reviewers mention, and other greens in the future Oh, and we added a generous sprinkle of lemon juice on each serving just before eating; really added a nice, fresh pop Thank you for this very fine recipe!
