    First of your recipes we have tried!! I actually am no fan of chickpeas AT ALL but the addition of raisins and almonds meant I hardly noticed them!! That is a great recipe for chickpeas therefore. By the way we used kale instead of spinach because it was in the garden and it worked fine. Also served it over rice which I do think detracted a bit so next time, will eat with bread as you suggested! Love this channel! Looking forward to 'digging in'. ¡España!
