Punjabi Chhole with Braising Greens

This was a quick and delicious dinner, based on a spice packet from Arora Creations (I’ve seen them at Mrs. Green’s and my kosher butcher).

Punjabi Chhole is basically spicy Indian chickpeas. Ginger, onions, fresh diced tomatoes, and a couple of jalapenos are quickly cooked with a can of drained chickpeas. I also added a huge bunch of roughly-chopped braising greens from my farm share. They bulked up the recipe, but otherwise didn’t really add to or take away from the flavor — just how I like my greens!

"Breakeven" by The Script. Such a sad story in a beautiful song. I have been singing this around the house so much that G. recognizes it and tells me to stop singing "THAT!" song again.
