Moroccan Chickpea Stew

Moroccan Chickpea Stew | A Couple Cooks

This post was created in partnership with ALDI. All opinions are our own.

It’s still stew season, and to us there’s nothing better than warm stews to fill our hearts and bellies. What are your favorite soup and stew recipes? Since March is still prime stew season, we want to collect your ideas. Could you let us know your favorites in the comments below? (Really–we want to know!)

Our pick: this Moroccan chickpea stew, a spiced, comforting mix of sweet potatoes and chickpeas. We serve it with quinoa or another whole grain for a filling meal. Here are a few of the reasons we love it—it is:

  • gluten-free and vegan (without the yogurt garnish), so it works for many diets.
  • fairly simple to make, just follow the typical stew formula: chop veggies, sauté onions, dump ingredients, simmer.
  • easy to transport—we brought it to some friends who just had a baby a while ago, and it was a hit.
  • full of spices from your cabinet, in case you needed a reason to use them!
  • pretty darn healthy, full of superfoods like sweet potatoes and chickpeas.
  • very satisfying—the warm spices make it cozy, and the lemon and cilantro brighten it up.
  • easy to store—if you’re making it ahead or have leftovers, it freezes well. Leftovers also work for lunches throughout the week.
