This dish is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. It's also a good source of protein and fiber. I like to add a bit of chopped cilantro or parsley to the top for garnish.

This dish was easy to make and so delicious! I used canned chickpeas and sweet potatoes to save time, and it still turned out great. The spices were well-balanced and gave the dish a wonderful flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
