--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  8             ounces  farfalle pasta -- (bow tie)
  2        tablespoons  olive oil
  4                     garlic cloves -- crushed
  19            ounces  garbanzos -- (1/2 large can) rinsed and drained
     1/2           cup  unsalted broth
     1/2           cup  golden raisins
  4               cups  fresh spinach -- chopped
  2        tablespoons  Parmesan cheese
                        Cracked black peppercorns -- to taste

Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil. Add the pasta and 
cook until al dente (tender), 10 to 12 minutes, or according to the package 
directions. Drain the pasta thoroughly.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and garlic over medium heat. Add the 
garbanzos and chicken broth. Stir until warmed through. Add the raisins and 
spinach. Heat just until spinach is wilted, about 3 minutes. Don't 
overcook.Divide the pasta among the plates. Top each serving with 1/6 of the 
sauce, 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese and peppercorns to taste. Serve immediately.

Dietitian's tip: The key to this recipe is to have the pasta and sauce done at 
the same time so that they don't overcook. This is a great recipe for two cooks 
in the kitchen.
