Description
A great meatless Monday meal that includes hearty vegetables. Perfect as a main meal or side dish.
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
- ½ whole Whole Onion, Diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt To Taste
- 20 ounces, weight Canned Crushed Tomatoes
- 15 ounces, weight Canned Chickpeas (drained)
- ½ heads Cauliflower, Cored And Cut Into Small Florets
- 1 cup Spinach Leaves, Roughly Chopped
Preparation
Start by heating a large skillet on medium heat. Add the canola oil, and then toss in the onions and garlic. Cook until the onion softens, about 7 minutes, then add the paprika, cumin, and salt. Stir to cook the seasonings, just about a minute, then add in the crushed tomatoes, chickpeas, and cauliflower.
Reduce the heat a bit, and cook until the cauliflower gets tender, about 10 minutes. When tender, add in the chopped spinach and give a good stir. Heat until spinach wilts. Taste, and adjust any seasoning.
Great as a side, but this can be a great meal in itself as well. I ended up eating this for about 3 days straight. The acid from the tomatoes lends a great hand to the cumin and paprika, as well as the great tenderness from the chickpeas and cauliflower.
