Look, I'm only going to tell you this once. MAKE THIS DISH! It does not taste low fat, it does not taste like weight watchers, its amazing. I loved it so much that I have plans to make it again (sans chickpeas) for Thanksgiving as a side dish.
It. Is. That. Good.
Don't omit the red pepper or the cumin or the cinnamon. It makes the dish. Mmmm.
Oh, yeah, and get out there and Rock the Vote! Happy Election Day Everyone.

Ok, Julie, DONE. It's in my slow cooker right now--I'm excited to see how this turns out!
Just out of curiosity, about how many calories would you guess it is? I know it's 4 points, but I don't do WW so I don't know what that would roughly translate to. It's clearly super healthy so I'm not too concerned but just wondering.
Thanks! We love the slow cooker recipes. How can you not love a slow cooker. Put ingredients in, walk away, eat. Love that!
I made this last night. It was delish!Thanks for the recipe! I may be joining you on WW soon.
I've made this a few times now, and it's just so good. the heat is nice. my mom loved it and wanted the recipe!
