We absolutely LOVE this recipe!! I've also added some Dreamfields pasta (about 1 cup cooked) to the recipe, and that's good, too!

I second that! I also enjoyed this dish. This recipe is really delicious, quick, and easy. The raspberry wine vinegar I used provided a pleasant taste and aroma to this dish. I will be doin this again.

Excellent - a definite keeper! Flavorful with the red wine vinegar, herbs, and onions! Love the creamy chickpeas.

Didn't have wine - used alittle less than 1/2 cup water. Also used 3 TB or so of vinegar, 1/2 cup onion, 1 large can of chickpeas, 1/2 tsp oregano (didn't have basil), and added 1/3 cup red bell pepper.

Red bell pepper adds a nice touch! Served it with bulgur and steamed broccoli. Could also serve it with spinach or asparagus. Cooked a bit longer until the onions were getting more translucent, about 10 min. Love the red wine flavor. Thanks for the recipe!

Loved this quick, easy, and yummy recipe. It's so easy to mix up depending on what you have on hand. I added pasta to it and served it with a simple spinach salad. Yum!

This has become one of my staple recipes. It's quick, it's so easy, and it doesn't require special or expensive ingredients. Sometimes I saute the onion first, then add the chickpeas/spices/broth-- I don't use wine or the vinegar. I vary the spices I put in, and it always turns out well!
