A quick and easy Vegetarian dish. Many times when I make this, I use a jar of spaghetti sauce rather than making my own sauce-makes it quicker and easier. You can also change the veggies you add to the sauce. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 minced garlic clove |
1/2 cup onion (diced) |
1 red bell pepper (chopped) |
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1 teaspoon dried basil |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas (drained) |
1/2 cup kalamata olive (coarsley chopped) |
1 (10 ounce) box couscous |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese (grated) |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in sauce pan.
2. Saute garlic, onion, and red pepper in olive oil for 5 min-until tender.
3. Add crushed tomatoes, chickpeas, olives, herbs, salt. and sugar. Simmer for 20 minutes.
