I finally made chef Jose Andres of Cafe Atlantico and Jaleo's moorish chick pea stew, which he submitted to an NPR contest asking for recipes to feed a family of 4 for <$10. It turned out wonderfully!
Here's the original recipe:

I followed it most of the way, except I poured out the cooking water from the chick peas and replaced it with veggie stock, omitted the saffron, changed the pimenton for ~2t cayenne pepper, and changed the Spanish sherry vinegar for red wine vinegar. Below is my revised ingredients list:
1c cooked garbanzos (chickpeas)
6 garlic cloves, peeled and whole
<1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
veggie stock
1.5 slices whole grain sliced bread
2t cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 pound (1 bag) spinach, washed and cleaned
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and white pepper to taste
+ one fried egg per serving
I made most of these changes in order to better accommodate my pantry rather than to make it taste better. It turned out really nicely, though--very hearty and delicious!

Hey! I bought chickpeas & printed out the recipe when you first mentioned it, in case you'd like to make it this weekend.
just made this again--I'd recommend less cayenne pepper
I think 1t cayenne is perfect. Also tried it with fresh kale instead of spinach--delish!!
