  3. Remove vegetable mixture from heat.
  4. When rice is finished cooking, stir in drained chickpeas and carrot/onion mixture. Serve warm.
Recipe Notes

Top with steamed vegetables for higher fiber (broccoli, cauliflower, bell peppers, or edamame work well).

Try different varieties- use different beans or different vegetables for a new dish.

Add crushed red pepper flakes, chili powder, or 2 teaspoons of your favorite hot sauce for added flavor.
