With a can, it feeds a lot!

I had originally planned to use this as a dinner recipe when out on a car camping adventure with dear old Mom. On the way to the campground - the kind of campground that caters to RVers - we stopped at a grocery store and I picked up a package of spaghetti and a can of garbanzo beans.

At the site, surprised to find I was cooking for myself and Mom, I doubled the spaghetti. THERE WAS SO MUCH (delicious) FOOD! With a full can of garbanzo beans, rather than the carefully portioned amount listed in this recipe, even if you didn't double the spaghetti you can still feed two adult humans. If you double the spaghetti as well, you get at least three portions if not more.

This is a delicious and filling recipe. Mom and I gorged ourselves silly and still had left overs. Yum!

Delicious!

This is quite tasty, and easily transformed to celiac and lactose intolerance.  Which can be a challenge in the woods. Thanks!
