Chickpeas with Sausage and Sundried Tomatoes

Ingredients
12 ounces pre-cooked sausage, chopped (I used Aidell’s Garlic and Artichoke Sausages.)
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 (15 ounces each) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
6-8 sundried tomatoes, thinly sliced (I used the sort that are packed in oil with Italian herbs.)
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and fresh black pepper, to taste

Instructions
1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add onion and garlic.  Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and garlic is fragrant.  Stir in sausage and cook until heated through. 

2. Pour sausage mixture into a bowl and add remaining ingredients.  Stir well and serve warm or refrigerate and serve chilled. 

Comments
I love chickpeas.  I love a lot of things, but chickpeas are close to the top of the list.  When I saw this recipe on the blog Dishing Up Delights I figured it would be just the sort of dish that would make a great lunch since it’s full of many flavors and proteins. 

This was extremely quick and easy to bring together, especially using pre-cooked sausages.  It took less than 15 minutes from start to finish.  The original recipe says to serve this warm, but I think it’s pretty scrumptious when it’s cold.  This makes a great, light, and flavor-packed meal.
