  • 1 large red bell pepper, cored and sliced
  • 1 large zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
  • 1 15-oz. can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

  • ½ cup cashews, lightly toasted and chopped

DIRECTIONS

Sauce

1.  In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the sauce.  Set aside.

Stir Fry

1.  Add the oil to a large skillet set over medium heat. When hot, add the onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until it starts to soften.

2.  Add the pepper and zucchini and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until tender to your liking.

3.  Add the chickpeas, peach slices and sauce (give it a quick whisk first). Continue to cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened.

4.  Remove from the heat, spoon over warm rice or quinoa, garnish with cashews, and enjoy!
