This is my own recipe and what I had for lunch today :)  It’s super yummy!

Spicy Chickpeas 

Makes one large serving.  Adjust the measurements to your needs.

What you’ll need:

• 1tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small-medium onion
• 6oz chickpeas, rinsed and strained (You can find them in 16 oz cans and save the rest for later!)
• 1/4 tsp tumeric
• 1/2 tsp cayenne
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tps salt
• Sprig or two of cilantro (optional) 

Directions: 

Start by warming your oil in a small to medium skillet over low heat.  Begin to chop your onions coarsely and dispose of the skin.  Add to the skillet and let sit for five minutes, stirring occasionally.  You’ll be ready to move on once as your onions become translucent (a little see-through) and begin to brown.  Add your spices to the onions, mixing to coat thoroughly, and allow to simmer for one minute.  Add the chickpeas with the salt and pepper and cook until warmed through.  Remove from the skillet and onto a serving plate or bowl, adding a sprig of cilantro as garnish (alternatively, you could chop it to toss evenly through your chickpeas).  Serve warm!

This is a great recipe for a satisfying entree, and goes great with steamed vegetables or rice.  Chickpeas are full of fiber and protein, being especially beneficial to vegetarians.  Enjoy!
