Ingredients
-
3 C. prepared plain couscous
1.5 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 16 oz. can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 16 oz. can chopped, stewed tomatoes
1/2 tbsp. cumin
Directions
Pour olive oil into bottom of medium size saucepan. Heat and then add the onion and garlic, cook until onion begins to soften. Pour in tomatoes and chickpeas, and stir in cumin. Allow to simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Excess water from tomatoes will boil off, so don't cover it! Serve over couscous. Delicious, a great substitute for carb-heavy and less nutritious pasta! Makes 4 servings, 3/4 cup couscous and 3/4 cup "stew."
