    2 sheets frozen pie dough, thawed
    1 (13.5 oz) can chickpeas, rinsed

    1/4 tsp paprika

    Cut 4 - 5 inch discs cut out pie dough and use to line 4 - 3.5 inch pie dishes. Trim edges and prick bases with a fork. Bake for 10 mins. Slice leftover pastry into 1/4 inch strips.
    Meanwhile, in a food processor, process chickpeas, onions, spices, garlic and almonds until combined. Distribute between pie shells.
    Heat a large frying pan. Lightly coat red pepper and zucchini with oil. Saute for 5-6 mins. Distribute between pie shells. Weave pastry strips over filling to create a lattice pattern.
