Steps:
- Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add kale and cook, tossing with two large spoons, until bright green, about 1 minute.
- Add broth, coriander, cumin, garam masala and salt.
- Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale is tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Stir in chickpeas; cover and cook until the chickpeas are heated through, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Tip: A 1- to 1 1/2-pound bunch of kale yields 16 to 24 cups of chopped leaves. When preparing kale for these recipes, remove the tough ribs, chop or tear the kale as directed, then wash it--allowing some water to cling to the leaves. The moisture helps steam the kale during the first stages of cooking.
- Ingredient Note: Garam masala, a ground spice mixture traditionally including coriander, cumin, cinnamon, peppercorns, cardamom and cloves, is commonly used in Indian cooking. Find it in the specialty-spice section of large supermarkets.

Steps:
- Heat a large cast iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the oil and onion and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and lightly golden. Add the garlic, and sauté for ~ 1 minute.
- Stir the chickpeas, garam masala, turmeric, coriander, cumin, cayenne, and salt into the pan. In a small bowl mix the tomato paste with the 1/4 cup of water until smooth, then add to the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the kale or greens of choice and a small sprinkle of salt to the pan. Let the greens wilt for about 1 minute to shrink somewhat before trying to stir them in. Carefully stir as the greens wilt to mix in fully. Sauté an additional 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the lemon juice, and stir, cooking 1 minute. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or scallion greens, and serve with basmati rice, asian noodles, or Indian flatbread. Finish it off with some hot sauce, sambal oelek, or plain unsweetened nondairy yogurt or raita. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together all the spices.
- Pour chickpeas into another bowl and drizzle with enough olive oil to lightly coat the beans. Stir. Pour in the spices and mix thoroughly.
- Pour the chickpeas onto a baking sheet and spread them around so they're in an even layer. Bake for 20 minutes, give the pan a shake, and bake for another 20-25 minutes, until they are crispy on the outside and still soft on the inside. Let the chickpeas cool before you pop them into your mouth (they're super hot).
