Instructions
Note:
This is a healthy one pot meal. We use the dried garbanzo beans to keep cost down. You can find them in your bulk section of your grocery store you will need to soak these the night before. We soak them the moment we get them home from the store and keep them in the fridge so they are ready whenever we want to use them. We do the same with dried beans to keep costs down but still get the great nutrition available in these. We find that we spend less on the bulk beans and get 3-4 times the amount a can offers. We also save on all the added sodium and preservatives the can has when you make them fresh you control what goes in them and the taste says it all. Pure deliciousness with only fresh whole ingredients. When we pick up the garbanzo beans for this stew we pick up a bit extra and make fresh hummus for the week. It goes so deliciously on bread for a sandwich as a spread as well as eating it as a dip. Yum! Now I am hungry.
