INGREDIENTS
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, sliced*
- 1 15 oz can organic chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 4 cloves garlic, minced*
- 1 large bunch swiss chard*, coarsely sliced including stems
- 1/2 head small-medium arrow head cabbage*, coarsely sliced
- 1 tbsp balsamic creme vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
- In a large, cast-iron wok (or other large skillet), heat oil on medium-high heat. Saute onions and chickpeas for about 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Turn heat down to medium and add swiss chard and cabbage. Saute for about 4-8 minutes or until cabbage and swiss chard are tender. (Add about 2 tbsp of water if the vegetables start to stick to the bottom of the pan.) Stir in salt, pepper, and balsamic creme vinegar.

Didn’t have any chickpeas prepared for this dish, so I opted for black beans–worked well! Nice taste and definitely adaptable.
Thanks,
