Ингредиенты
- 1 medium onion, chopped (I used a red onion)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (I actually used about 4 cloves garlic for more flavor)
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger (I think I used a little more than 1 Tbsp)
- 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1 1/2 teaspoons good curry powder (or adjust to taste) (I ended up using closer to 1 Tbsp)
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne or other ground red pepper (or to taste) (I used 1/4 tsp and along with the high quality curry powder, it was quite spicy)
- 1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
- 1 cup cooked quinoa (I used red quinoa because it has a bit more fiber than regular)
- salt to taste (Definitely donât omit this step â this recipe needs salt added, otherwise it will taste bland!)
- Whole wheat pita, or toasted whole wheat bread, or whole wheat Naan Flatbread
- Part 2: Tomato âSalsaâ & Other Toppings (I added this to give some more dimension & texture to the meal)
- 1 cup grape tomatoes, quartered/halved
- Diced red onion
- Diced red bell pepper
- A few squirts of lemon juice
- Pinch of salt
