This vegan harvest bowl with chickpeas makes a perfect healthy lunch or dinner. Cosy, comforting and flavourful, it's also super easy to throw together. Gluten-free and oil-free.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C/400 F and start cooking the wild rice according to packaging instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the chickpeas, maple syrup and onion salt. Arrange them over a sheet of baking paper and bake for around 20 minutes.
Add the carrot and aubergine to a non-stick frying pan. Cook for around 5 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften. Then, add the canned tomatoes, tamari, paprika, curry powder and black pepper. Cook for a further 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
Once the chickpeas are ready, serve them together with the rice, carrot and aubergine stew, tomatoes and spinach.
