What You’ll Need:

2 c brown rice, chickpea or quinoa pasta

1 c filtered water

2 Tbsp tomato paste

1 bunch kale, rinsed and torn from stem

1 package soy chorizo (Trader Joes carries an awesome one!)

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

2-3oz (about 1/4c) cheddar cheese, shredded

Bring a medium pot of lightly salted water to a boil for the pasta & cook according to package instructions.

Meanwhile, heat water & tomato paste in a large frying pan or Wok. Stir paste until completely dissolved.

Add kale, chorizo & chickpeas. Cover and allow to simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until kale has reached desired cooked-ness!

Top each serving of pasta with goodness & include shredded cheese if desired.

Serves 3.
