I have been trying a
lot of turkish dishes lately. Interesting stuff, a thousands ways
with chick peas ;-)

We haven't done anything that was specifically called Turkish, but we've
done a lot of "Mediterranean" which, of course, includes a huge variety
including much of what must be found in Turkey. Also, we have never
selected dishes especially for nutritional or health considerations, but we
tend to eat a fairly healthy diet largely because we like a varied diet
including lots of grains and vegetables. Cheese are out great
downfall.......but that's another story altogether.

Anyway, chick peas are the bomb! A million and one uses.....last time
anyone looked.....and new ones cropping up every day. We found a killer
recipe for chick pea stew ( I may have shared it here at one time) a couple
of years ago in "Cooking Light" and have worked a lot of variations on it.
A perennial favorite in our household.
