Spinach, Chickpeas and Currants



I am always on the look for new and unusual recipes, so as I was casually browsing the website for the TV show, Everyday Gourmet, I was struck by a recipe for chickpeas, spinach and currants.  I like all three, but was curious as to how they'd taste together.  Of course, I made it!

And the verdict?  Really good and dead simple to make.  I served this with beef and feta meatballs, and the whole dish had an exotic feel to it.  The only problem is that there was not enough of this for my liking!!

    I like all three too, and this sounds tasty. Beef & feta meatballs also sound tasty!

    Like you, I love all three of these ingredients but haven't ever had them in combination. I will have to give this a try now though - it looks great!

    I think I could eat that as dinner it looks so yummy - full of foods I love - but would be impressive at a dinner party too
