    Zest of 1 lime
    Curry powder, 3 tbsp
    Ground coriander, 1 tbsp
    Red pepper flakes, 0.5 tsp

    Diced tomatoes, 14.5-oz can, with juice
    Chunky or creamy peanut butter, 2/3 cup
    Light coconut milk, 14-oz can
    Chickpeas (garbanzo beans), 2 15-oz cans, drained/rinsed (or equivalent cooked from scratch)
    Dried apricots, dried, minced, 0.5 cup
    Golden raisins, 0.5 cup (not packed)
    Salt, 1 tsp

Tips

Using tomatoes & peanut butter without salt, or with reduced salt, will reduce the sodium nicely for those who need to watch it.


Directions

Prep time increases if you cook the chickpeas from scratch--but the cost goes down by quite a bit!

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots and jalapeņo; saute till soft, 7-8 minutes.

Add garlic, ginger, lime zest & saute another 3 minutes. Add spices and saute briefly to release fragrance.

Stir in broth, tomato sauce, & diced tomatoes; bring to a boil. Stir in peanut butter, reduce heat, simmer till it melts.

Stir in coconut milk, chickpeas, & dried fruit. Simmer 10 minutes. Salt to taste.

Serve in bowls over brown rice or quinoa. Top with a dollop of plain yogurt & some chopped fresh cilantro.
