Black Bean and Chickpea Chili
Good recipe, especially for a high veggie low sat fat meal, with caveats. I doubled the chili powder and added 2 cloves of diced garlic to the veggies and found it to be STILL mild but very tasty... but I live in California where Mexican food is commonplace and spicy. I also increased the cumin by half and it could have probably been doubled. I did not have corn in the house - we eat very little or no starch - so diced a zucchini and sauteed it with the veggies and it worked perfectly. Also, the recipe makes about 8 servings, not 12, unless you are serving it in small portions or as a side dish. We ate it as a one dish meal with a little brown rice underneath, and in this case, it was 8 normal portions, not big man-sized ones. The time allocated is fairly accurate, maybe a little optimistic for the first time unless you're a ginzu chopper!
