Healthy Butter Chickpeas

Healthy Butter Chickpeas are a lightened-up, vegan and gluten free take on a Indian-style classic that’s easy to make and ready in about 30 minutes.

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup onion, chopped (about 1 medium onion)
3-4 large cloves of garlic, minced or grated
1 1/2 tablespoons mild yellow curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne (or more if you like it hot!)
1/2 cup vegetable stock
1 15oz can plain, low sodium tomato sauce (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 19oz can low sodium chickpeas (about 2 cups)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon lime juice (freshly squeezed is best)
1/4 cup smooth, natural almond butter, at or close to room temperature
1/2 cup coconut milk (I used full fat)
1 teaspoon sugar (preferably unrefined sugar or honey would work too)
Salt and extra lime juice to taste
Rice, potato wedges, etc for serving
