  1. Rough chop the sausage and ham. In a large stockpot, sauté sausage and ham to render fat. Remove all but a couple tablespoons of grease and add onions and garlic.
  2. Stir in the potatoes. Sauté for a few minutes to brown the potatoes. Stir in the chickpeas, tomatoes with juice and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Add seasonings and the spinach. Partially cover and simmer slowly for 2 hours.
  3. Note: You can use pintos, Mexican red beans – any bean you may like. Also, you can use 1 teaspoon regular paprika with 1/4 teaspoon cayenne if you cannot find the hot smoked paprika.

      Sabado Mexicano is alive & well with another one of your wonderful recipes, I a huge garbanzo bean fan. I love the "Nutrition Facts" thing for our recipes here.....it's not exactly accurate but gotta love the 205% of recommended daily fiber on this...(evil grin). Good to see you here, Drick!
