olive oil
3/4 cup white rice
1/4 of an onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp ground corriander

1 can black beans (drained)
1 can garbanzo beans (drained)

2 tbsp chopped parsley

In a little olive oil, saute onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, cayenne, tumeric and rice ~5 mins. Add 1.5 cups water and cover. Cook until water is absorbed ~15 mins, let sit 5 mins

Saute lamb in a little olive oil, breaking it up into small pieces. Add black beans and garbanzo beans, saute until warm and set aside until rice is done.

Mix rice mixture and lamb/bean mixture together with the parsley and serve with greek yogurt
