Chickpea spinach feta stew

After a long week of customer commitments and conference food that left imagination and flavor at the door, this weeks blog is devoted to a simple, single pot dish:  chickpea stew with friends.

Build a base of flavor, slowly.

 Add the tomato paste, garlic and ginger.  Don't burn em.

 Fresh spinach... from my first visit to Fairway foods... nice

Cooks down fast

Add some of the tomatoes and simmer a bit... then add the rinsed chickpeas

After simmering for 15 or so, season and add the feta cheese.
