Whole Wheat Spaghetti W/ Golden Garlic and Herbs Recipe #380308
Adaptation from a recipe found in the May/June 2009 issue of Vegetarian Times. This is a great way to use a variety of fresh herbs and provides a complete protein. I set aside some of the plain spaghetti and chickpeas for my kids. They love them with a little butter and a sprinkle of cheese.
