  1. Fantastic! This does have great flavor, I really enjoyed this and it was super fast and easy to make with things I already have on hand. I used low sodium canned tomatoes, and even skipped out of the salt all together - Still good. Parsley is right, cabbage or spinach would have been awesome in this. A keeper, thank you!
     
  2. Awesome! Loads of flavor and easy to make, too. I used a fresh homegrown tomato for this. It was just perfect. I made this as written, but did not mash any of the chickpeas. This is really versatile. A handful of baby spinach or cabbage would be great in here, too. I'll make this again. Thanx!
