This Moroccan Chickpea Stew Is Cozy, Healthy, and Absolutely Delicious

The stew combines sweet potatoes, chickpeas, canned tomatoes, spinach, onion, garlic, olive oil, and vegetable broth with Moroccan spices such as cumin, ginger, and a hint of cinnamon. Sweet potatoes become tender and creamy while chickpeas soak up the spices, resulting in a robust one-pot meal. Serve over quinoa for a gluten-free, plant-based dinner and finish with a squeeze of lemon, fresh cilantro, and an optional dollop of Greek yogurt. Canned chickpeas provide convenience; 1½ cups cooked chickpeas also work. Butternut squash can replace sweet potatoes, and fire-roasted tomatoes add extra depth. Reader reviews praise the flavors and repeat servings.
