Meatless Monday: Curried Tomatoes & Chickpeas

Tomatoes are in season, so it only makes sense to enjoy fresh ones as much as possible before the Summer comes to an end. This recipe is the perfect opportunity :) This uber-satisfying dish is as simple as it is delicious.

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 scallions (sliced; white and light green parts separated)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 pints grape or cherry tomatoes
1 can (15 1/2 oz.) rinsed chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
salt and pepper

Directions:
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the white parts of the scallions, the ginger and the curry powder until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes). Add the tomatoes and cook until beginning to burst (about 5-7 minutes). Add the chickpeas and lime juice. Sprinkle in the scallion greens and add salt and pepper to taste.

Bon appetit!
