Hoff's Zucchini/Chickpea One-Pot Meal

Hoff's Zucchini/Chickpea One-Pot Meal 
Yields: 4 Hearty Cups
meat-free, dairy-free, egg-free


Ingredients:

  • 1 can Chickpeas - rinsed
  • 4 cloves of Garlic - minced
  • 1 Zucchini - shredded
  • 1 can diced Potatoes - rinsed
  • 1 can diced Fire Roasted Tomatoes
  • 1 bag Uncle Ben's Ready Rice Garden Vegetable (or flavor of choice)
  • 1/2 Lime
  • 1 tablespoon Liquid Smoke
  • 1 tablespoon Bragg's Liquid Amino Acids (or soy sauce)
  • Season to taste with: 
    • Cumin
    • Ground Mustard
    • Ground Ginger

Directions:
  1. Lightly toast Chickpeas in a large pot (add a tablespoon of water to prevent sticking if needed)
  2. Add Garlic and stir constantly until fragrant
  3. Stir in Zucchini, Potatoes, Tomatoes and Rice and cover, stirring occasionally until heated through
  4. Squeeze Lime over mixture
  5. Add Liquid Smoke, Bragg's Amino Acids, Cumin, Ground Mustard & Ground Ginger
  6. Stir until seasonings are well blended
  7. Sit down, eat and enjoy the clean-up!

FYI:
  • Strangely the zucchini tastes like sauerkraut in this dish
  • I did not cook the Uncle Ben's Rice in the microwave, just add it directly to the pot and it will be just fine
