Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil

- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Add oil, garlic and onion to a large skillet. Cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until onion becomes clear. If you use garlic powder, add it in step 2.
Add spinach, garbanzo beans, cumin and salt. Cook until heated through, mashing the beans slightly with a spoon. Serve warm.

Add more garlic, if desired. Cook your own dry beans. One can (15 ounces) is about 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups drained beans.
