Chana Masala

I’ve learned a few things this week. Coming back from vacation never gets easier. Labs don’t write themselves. Dogs will find food anywhere… even buried (and forgotten) in the bottom of a bag. And if something smells, well, check the bottom of your shoes.

DSC06075One (of the many) perks of visiting my parents is getting to raid the pantry. I made off with a couple of cans of chick peas and some tomato paste.

Oh hai there Chana Masala.

And bulgur wheat? It’s so nice to have met you. I love this stuff.

DSC06074 I used this recipe. The only changes I made were: a can of green chiles in lieu of a jalapeno & I used a full can of tomato paste.

It was so yummy it came with me to work today.

Speaking of tomorrow, hopefully starting then I’ll be back to my regular blogging schedule. Adios!

  1. Getting back into a groove is always rough. But I love your life lessons! My dog ate half a loaf of bread the day before thanksgiving because my mom left it on the floor. And she is a tiny dog. Crazy.

    Love the sound of this! Channa masala is one of my favorites and I've always wanted to make it.

  2. I met bulgar wheat a few months ago and still have a huge bag of it hanging out in my pantry. Thank you for introducing me to another way to make use of it! This sounds right up my alley.
