Recipe Name middle eastern rice with black beans & chickpeas Submitted by Guest
Recipe Description I found this online, but it doesn't have any nutrition information. I love the flavors of the spices; cumin, coriander and tumeric with a little red pepper to heat it up a little. Although it has ground turkey n it, I think no one would notice if it was omitted, then it would be vegetarian.
