Thank you NPR

I recently became a fan of dried chick peas, trading in years  of convenience found in their canned counterpart.  Then I heard a cooking interview with Jose Andres on NPR.  The challenge was to create a meal for four under ten dollars.  His recipe included using stale bread, lots of olive oil, fried garlic and a hefty amount of paprika, saffron and cumin in addition to chick peas and spinach.  The result is a  meatless stew with layers of flavor that is as satisfying as a beef brisket.  Add a fried egg on top- you won't regret it.  If you become as enamored as I am, you too will be soaking chick peas for a whole repertoire of meals.

I heard that interview, too!! That is amazing that you posted a link to the recipe and now that you've endorsed it, I'm sure to cook it up (with a farm fresh fried egg, of course)!
