This feeds our family twice in a week when we eat it alongside a salad, but you could easily double the recipe to feed more people or have bigger portions, if needed.
Ingredients:
5-8oz Spinach (depends on how much you prefer)
1 Onion diced
1 15oz can Chickpeas
1 tablespoon Minced Garlic (about 2 cloves minced)
1 teaspoon Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil for sauteing (is that even a word?!)
1 cup Quinoa
2 cups Water
You'll want to make the components of this dish simultaneously, but since I'm not your Momma, I'm not going to tell you what order to do it all in...so here's the directions for how to cook both parts. ;)
Directions for Chickpeas and Spinach:
1. Heat oil in large skillet.
2. Drain and rinse your chickpeas.
3. Add garlic to skillet and cook until fragrant...about 1-2 minutes.
4. Add diced onion and cook until soft.
5. Add spinach, chickpeas, and cumin to the skillet. Your skillet will look very full, but don't worry! The spinach reduces itself as it cooks.
6. Stir, stir, stir until spinach fully wilts and chickpeas are cooked through.
7. Add salt and pepper to taste, and that part is done!
Directions for Quinoa:
1. Combine 1 cup quinoa and 2 cups water in a pot and bring to a boil.
2. Turn to low, cover, and let simmer about 15 min, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking to the bottom of the pot.
3. Uncover for about 5 min and fluff before serving.
I like serving this dish all combined...I just go ahead and mix it all up so it's evenly distributed. Supper is served!
Y'all let me know if you tried the recipe and how you enjoyed it!
