Oh my, this is soooooooo good!!!! My sis and me had this for dinner yesterday and we are still raving about it. :) The taste of the allspice with the sweet pumpkin, sharp onion and earthy chickpeas is so yummy! Parsley on top adds a wonderful contrast. The only change I made was to leave out the red wine vinegar and using a green hokkaido squash in place of the jap. I really dont know how one could not like this. It is easy to prepare, rather quick, very healthy and soooooo good! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, Jubes!
