I love light recipes that utilize healthy veggies. That leaves room for a nice glass of wine, right? Recently, we have been eating a lot of naan dishes. It pairs with so many different flavors, so we thought we would try out a chickpea inspired recipe. This dish is very fresh, flavorful and tangy. It’s …
