Fifteen Minute Feast

We needed a quick meal with limited supplies in the pantry. I never thought it would end up on the blog but it tasted so good and I had friends ask for the recipe. We all need a last minute hearty meal at times so here is an idea. Try it for yourself.

INGREDIENTS

2 400g cans chickpeas, drained

1 400g can diced tomatoes

1/2 can coconut cream

1 large onion/ four shallots. finely diced/sliced

2 large cloves garlic, crushed

2 generous tsp sweet paprika

1 tsp mixed herbs

1 tsp Celtic salt

fresh coriander (optional)

METHOD

This dish is served on quinoa, rice or couscous so the first thing I did was put the rice/quinoa on to boil or couscous on to soak in boiling water.

Saute the onion in a little oil till soft

Add garlic and seasonings and saute for a further 30 seconds

Add chickpeas, tomatoes and coconut cream

Bring to the boil and then turn down to simmer while you wait for the rice/quinoa/couscous 

Make a toss salad while you wait.

Once everything is ready stir through a little fresh coriander if desired and serve.

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
(Proverbs 31:10&27)
