SO HOW'D IT GO?
A little something to add ^-^ the flavor really develops if you let it sit in the fridge over night.
I totally loved it today!
This soup was pretty good although it did need quite a bit of salt. It was very filling and I absolutely loved the chickpeas ;)
This was pretty good - a little bland, but I also didn't have any lemon juice, so that may have played a big part....
I added 2 cans of chickpeas, and no fresh tomatoes. I think I would have liked it better if the spice combination were different. I ended up drenching it in sriracha......but very healthy since I didn't use the oil - I saute in veggie broth.
This is delicious! I added a little water and put the canned tomatoes in with their juice, because there didn't seem to be much liquid otherwise. Did I miss something? Anyway, this was great. Served with quinoa. Eaten with spork. :)
yum! I love how tangy it is with the lemon and paprika. actually, I only had one lemon, so I put in the juice and the zest. also used collards for spinach. I didn't have a red pepper, I wish I had - next time!
Yum! This was really tasty! I used cut up celery instead of spinach, and 'Italian' tomatoes and left out the spices, and it was great! Reheats very well too.
This turned out really well! I only had one can of chickpeas, but I think it was enough.Serve with a good crusty vegan bread! Yum!
this was really yummy. i didn't have any sort of potato products so i had it on macaroni instead, and it was excellent.
:D looks really good, gonna try it soon!
;D I knew it was going to be good, and it was far better than I had imagined. I started the recipe and realized that I had no fresh tomatoes, so I omitted them, and it was DELICIOUS I forgot to make rice and found out this recipe is awesome with taco chips. :D :D :D
