So, I like Indian food. I am in the process of experimenting at home because it seems so much cheaper that way. Indian food gives vegetarians so much flavor and hearty meals without having to add meat. Plus, it ends up being low-fat too.
recipe:
1/2 can of unseasoned tomato sauce
1 small onion, diced
2 garlic cloves
2 T olive oil
1/2 can chick peas, drained
2 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. curry powder
1/2 tsp. garam masala
salt
pepper
cucumber sauce
pita bread
In a sauce pan combine oil, onion, and garlic. Cook until soft, then add tomato sauce and spices. Simmer until fragrant. Add chick peas and continue to simmer until they start to break down slightly, this will cause the sauce to thicken. Cook until you reach the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
warm a pita on the stove or in the microwave. Spoon mixture into warmed pita bread and top with cucumber sauce.
This recipe is smoky, maybe I would add some paprika in there too next time. Play around with spices. This is packed with protein and definitely satisfies.
