Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 onion diced

3 cloves garlic -- minced

2 pinches red pepper

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme (1/2 tsp dried)

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1 pinch saffron threads

1 can chickpeas -- (15 oz)

2 cups chopped tomatoes

1 pinch freshly ground pepper

1 bunch chard -- leaves only

1 12 oz box spaghetti

1/2 cup grated soy cheese

 

Preheat oven to 350 F. Cook pasta al dente, drain. Saute onion, garlic, crushed

red pepper, herbs, paprika, and saffron (if desired). Cook over medium high

heat, stirring frequently until onions are soft about 8 min. Add chickpeas,

1/2 cup of their liquid and tomatoes. Season with pepper. Lower heat and

simmer 15 min. If pan becomes dry, add a little water to keep it moist. Steam

chard until bright green and tender. Remove, chop coarsely, season with pepper

and if desired salt. Put pasta in casserole, add chickpea-tomato mixture,

chard and cheese. Toss until well mixed. Cover with foil and bake until warmed

through, about 20 min. Serve with additional grated cheese if desired. Makes 4

to 6 servings (I find it to be more).

NOTES : Here in Fl. it's hard to find chard, so I usually use fresh or frozen

spinach. Kale would work just as well. You can also prepare this ahead of time,

then pop into oven and heat for 20 min.
