I almost submitted this recipe today and luckily I checked to see if there was one already on this site. A friend made this for us a couple years ago and it is the first time we have enjoyed chickpeas. We feel it is excellent for many reasons: healthy, low fat and it keeps a long time refrigerated. We have eaten it both hot and cold and always with a dollop of natural yoghurt. Thanks for submitting - very tasty as an entree or side dish.

I want to thank everyone who has made a recipe I've posted. I know your time is valuable, and it's a leap of faith to try a recipe that has zero or very few reviews. I really do appreciate it.
I'm addicted to cookbooks. I love buying them, I love borrowing them from the library, I love receiving them as presents.
I love to cook (hate the messy dishes, however), but I don't cook very often. I'm mostly a weekend cook.
I'm a library assistant at an elementary school. I'm a big fan of children's literature.
I'm single and I don't have children, but I do have kitten babies that I adore like nothing else in this world.
