Thursday’s Recipe Spinach & Chickpea Casserole

This is so easy it’s ridiculous and so simple that it’s hard to believe it could be so good!

Spinach and ChickPea Casserole

serves 4 (or me two times)

3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

about 2 cups cooked of chick peas

3 large garlic cloves

1 (heavy handed) teaspoon tomato paste

1/4 cup of water

salt and pepper to taste

2 lbs spinach

Pre-heat oven to 400

In large casserole dish/pan heat the olive oil in the oven

In a bowl mix all other ingredients except the spinach

Add to the hot oil

Cover and cook about 15 minutes

Add the spinach, gently stirring it in (you may need to add a bit more water)

Cook until spinach has wilted–about 15 minutes

Yay, a new way to cook spinach! This looks delicious – can hardly wait to try it. Might add a little feta too.

Thanks!
