This recipe is okay, but it's not as good as I was hoping for. I would probably not make it again.

This recipe is a bit too time-consuming for me. I would recommend using a slow cooker instead of cooking the dish on the stovetop.

The spinach in this dish was a bit too wilted for my taste. I would recommend using fresh spinach instead of frozen.

I found the chickpeas to be a bit too hard. I would recommend cooking them for a longer period of time.
