Ingredients
  

Creamy Chickpeas

  • 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 heaping tbsp harissa paste see notes
  • 1 19oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 19oz can full fat coconut milk
  • 1 heaping tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce tamari for GF
  • 2 large handfuls spinach, chopped
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast or grated parmesan cheese

Toppings

Instructions
 

  • In a pot or pan on medium heat, add the olive oil and onions and cook for 3-4 mins.
  • Add the garlic and harissa paste and cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
  • Now, add in the chickpeas, coconut milk, and miso and keep it on a rapid simmer for about 10 mins or until the sauce has reduced.
  • Now stir in the soy sauce, chopped spinach, and nooch (or parm) and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. Top with fresh cilantro, and serve with your favourite rice, grain or bread. Enjoy!

Notes

If you can't find harissa paste here's what you can use instead:
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • hot chili flakes to taste
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika 
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
This will still make the chickpeas taste SO delicious. However, if you can get your hands on some Harissa paste I would highly recommend it since it's so flavorful! 
What to serve this with:
  • Rice
  • Quinoa
  • Couscous
  • Garlic Naan
  • Roti
  • Sourdough
  • Fresh Crusty bread
