Story

Garbanzo beans, or chick peas as they are sometimes called, are a wonderfully tasty way to add extra protein to your diet without needing to add more meat to your meals. There are many soups and casseroles that have added garbanzo beans in the recipe, but I really enjoy this side dish which actually features garbanzo beans as one of the main ingredients. The savory combination of flavors and colors also makes this dish a great side for company meals. Try using a sweet red or orange bell pepper or a combination of different colors to really brighten up this dish.
