This Vegan Chickpea and Spinach Curry is a protein packed and fiber filled curry that will make your taste-buds very happy. My daughter leans towards eating meat free a lot of the time. On the other extreme, I live with two carnivores. My husband and son are seldom satisfied with a meal unless there is some kind of meat in the meal. The lucky thing is this delicious vegetarian/vegan curry was even satisfying to them. We ate the curry over a bed of rice and there was a definite two thumbs up rating from all of us at the table.
Chickpeas are very hearty and they stand up to cooking without turning mushy. I always have a variety of dried or canned chickpeas in my pantry. I used two cans of chickpeas here because this curry was a last minute meal. Either way, chickpeas are very budget friendly.
I added spinach for extra nutrients and a touch of green in the dish. I love using baby spinach in this dish since the stems are so small and there is no chopping required. This dish was ready in less than 30 minutes and we had a meal that made everyone around the table happy. There was no special short order cooking tonight. I made one meal to everyone's satisfaction and that makes Mom happy.

ReplyDeleteHi Ramona,
ReplyDeleteChickpea curry looks so good! My husband loves chickpea and I make a spicy chickpea curry Sri Lankan style. I like the addition of spinach to make it healthier :)
