1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup red bell pepper -- chopped
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme -- crumbled
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups rice milk -- or low-fat soymilk or other non-dairy milk
1 1/2 cups chickpeas -- 1-15oz can, rinsed & drained
1/2 cup scallions -- finely chopped
1. Sauté the mushrooms & bell peppers in water or veggie broth (original
recipe called for oil) for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly so they don't stick
or brown. Stir in the flour, then add nutritional yeast and spices and continue
cooking & stirring for another minute.
2. Remove from heat and gradually stir in the milk, mixing constantly to
avoid lumps.
3. Return to heat to continue cooking. Stir constantly until thickened, then
add chickpeas & scallions and continue cooking another 3-5 minutes or until
the chickpeas are thoroughly warmed.
4. Serve at once over biscuits, rice, noodles or toast points. *See note.

triangles, or split biscuits. - Jo Stepaniak"
