Marry Me Chickpeas and Orzo
I made a double batch and used five cups of broth. The next day, the leftovers were extremely “dense”, so I think it would have been better to use all the broth called for in the recipe. However, I don’t really recommend making a double batch, as the leftovers didn’t seem as good as the original dish. Used two small boxes of cassava orzo, which was slightly more than called for by a double recipe. Used an entire jar of sun-dried tomatoes and stirred in the oil remaining in the jar. Used plant cream, which I had on hand; next time I will probably use coconut milk or coconut cream. Added a full 5-ounce box of baby spinach. Used basil in a tube rather than fresh. Greg absolutely loved it.
