Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 15 oz (420 grm). can garbanzo beans (chick peas); 1 cup (225 ml) frozen corn kernels; 3 oz (84 grm). (about 10 to 12) grape tomatos cut in half (or one small tomato diced); 1/2 cup (125 ml) crushed pineapple, no sugar added variety; 1/4 cup (60 ml) sugar-free maple syrup (I used Cary's. If you aren't trying to cut calories you can use regular maple syrup); 1 large green bell pepper (You can use red if that's what you have on hand and only change the taste slightly); One cup of diced onion; 1/2 tsp (2 ml). cumin; 1/2 tsp (2 ml). curry; 1 tsp (5 ml). chipolte pepper spice (use more if you like it hotter. If you don't have chipolte, you can substitue other red pepper spice or chili powder, but the chipolte is really good); 1 cup (225 ml) water; 2 Tbsp (30 ml). extra virgin olive oil; 1 tsp (5 ml). fresh ground pepper; 2 large garlic cloves, minced; 1 tsp (5 ml). salt, optional (I used sea salt)
