Add some pasta to the mix and I am totally hooked.

Back when we were in NZ and delicious pumpkins were plentiful and there to be eaten, not carved. Had to stop calling it "dinner from a can!" with a game-show hand flourish because Husband would go all unenthusisatic. "Pumpkin and Spinach curry" was way more appetizing-sounding but not nearly so flourishful. <br /><br />On a side note, I find myself lusting after TWO vegetarian (or at least vegetable) cookbooks - River Cottage Everyday Veg and Rose Elliot's New Complete Vegetarian. You are at least partially to blame, you and your damn reasonable, filling, meat-less recipes that contain neither cheezly or savoury yeast flakes.

There's not enough time in a day.<br />The chickpea dish is similar to a recipe I found on thestonesoup.com, which is a can of chickpeas, can of crushed tomatoes, chilli flakes, garam masala and a bit of cream. So easy and tasty, and I'd been meaning to try it with sour cream or yoghurt for a healthier version but coconut milk would be great.<br />The pasta looks delicious too!Kate @ lovelornunicorn.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12608320390913462394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-51442637281653995322011-10-10T16:45:39.113+13:002011-10-10T16:45:39.113+13:00Lady, I definitely think about your blog and revel...Lady, I definitely think about your blog and revel in its amazingness all the time too ;) I, too, have the dinner dilemma very often, but I think that's because I almost exclusively focus my energy on brainstorming sweets for my blog :DHannahhttp://wayfaringchocolate.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-35402873784051344552011-10-10T10:08:14.031+13:002011-10-10T10:08:14.031+13:00I love The Lady Is A Tramp too.

Lady Gaga does a splendid job and I think hearing her voice in this style makes it easy to compare her talent to songs we have heard before.<br /><br />"I am tired food" is usually also comfort food for me. Of course, making it lighter helps. If you're already feeling lethargic, a big helping of mac and cheese isn't going to give you an energy boost! <br /><br />3 cans of stuff is a great go to meal. I think I need to learn a thing or two about lazy cooking from you :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-91572234710954807732011-10-10T08:11:13.779+13:002011-10-10T08:11:13.779+13:00Oh that pasta sounds so good.

Not having tahini I tried to whip up some of my BLACK sesame seeds with oil. Meaning my hummus was gray - yay!<br /><br />Wanting to make it more appetizing, I wanted to throw together a curry sauce. I had some curry paste laying around, but alas, no coconut milk. Hello, delicious janky curry dish comprised of curry paste, milk, coconut flakes, and gray hummus!Emmahttp://ofagatesandmadeleines.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-44845740293088906442011-10-10T04:31:34.706+13:002011-10-10T04:31:34.706+13:00I love it when 3 cans equal dinner!I love it when 3 cans equal dinner!Alicia Foodycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931796992646884249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-34300515181648194782011-10-10T00:08:06.865+13:002011-10-10T00:08:06.865+13:00thank you for the spicy chickpeas recipe.
