Being a cook is being an artist —You can mix ingredients in your fridge or pantry and get creative results! I had some chickpea cans I wanted to use and I decided to make this vegetarian strew which turned out delicious ! I used vegetables I had in my fridge and you can too! You can substitute the green peppers for red/orange/ yellow or add any vegetables you already have like celery or carrots. The important thing is that you make it with love and you get creative while doing it.
