Tofu Chickpea Curry

Nutritional values
Whole grain rice contains many vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Chickpeas provide plenty of vegetable protein, fiber and the trace element iron - not only interesting for vegetarians! The often underestimated canned tomatoes also score points: The red vegetable contains plenty of lycopene, an antioxidant that protects our cells from free radical damage.
Instead of brown rice, try quinoa: This pseudocereal provides even more satiating fiber and protein. Chickpeas can also be replaced by other legumes, such as kidney beans or lentils.
