Preparation
1
Start Prep

  • Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Remove and discard any large stems from kale. Drain and rinse chickpeas.

2
Roast Kale & Chickpeas

  • Place kale and chickpeas in a large bowl. Toss with garlic powder, half the stock concentrates, a large drizzle of oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  • Spread kale and chickpeas out in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet. Roast on top rack until slightly crispy, stirring halfway through, 18-22 minutes. (For 4 servings, divide kale and chickpeas between two baking sheets and roast on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.) Wipe out bowl.

3
Cook Couscous

  • Meanwhile, in a small pot (medium pot for 4 servings), combine couscous, remaining stock concentrate, and 2 cups water (4 cups for 4). Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

4
Finish Prep & Mix Dressing

  • While couscous cooks, halve tomatoes.

  • In bowl used for kale and chickpeas, whisk together jam, half the vinegar (all for 4 servings), 1 TBSP olive oil (2 TBSP for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper until thoroughly combined.

5
Toss Veggies & Couscous

  • To bowl with dressing, add tomatoes and apricots. Toss to combine.

  • Transfer roasted kale and chickpeas and cooked couscous to bowl. Toss to combine; season with salt and pepper to taste.

6
Serve

  • Divide kale and chickpea couscous between bowls and top with almonds. Serve.
