Curried Chickpeas and Zucchini with Cous-Cous

2 teaspoons turmeric
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 small zucchini, sliced
2 small tomatoes, chopped
2 cups cooked chickpeas
2/3 cup raisins
1 cup cous-cous
1 1/2 cups reserved liquid from cooking chickpeas

"Dry fry" the spices a few minutes, stirring constantly. Add the onion
and garlic and saute in as much of your favorite saute liquid as
necessary to keep them from sticking. (I use reserved liquid from
cooking chickpeas.) When onions are translucent, add the zucchini. Cover
and cook a few minutes, steaming the zucchini somewhat. Add the
chickpeas, tomatoes, and raisins. Cook until the veggies are done to
your satisfaction.

A light tasting but spicy pasta dish sure to please your clamoring taste buds.

This is based on a recipe I found online some time ago, but now I just prepare it from memory. Tabbouleh traditionally calls for both fresh parsley and mint, but since mint is hard to find at my local stores for some reason, I just omit it. It's still delicious. By all means, add about 1/4 cup finely chopped if you can get it. Finally, I think the final sodium content is lower than the calculations say because I do rinse the beans.

This is a delicious snack packed with all the health benefits of chickpeas. I've taken a base of curry powder and amped up some of my favorite flavors from it by adding more of them. This is about medium spicy. Add more or less cayenne pepper for your own taste. You can eliminate some sodium by making your own curry powder and eliminate some of the fat by skipping the sesame seeds (but they add to the crunch.)

This is a flavor sensation!
