CHICKPEA RECIPES


Chickpea Spinach Salad August 10, 2008
I love chickpeas. Garbanzo beans, also known as chickpeas are healthy, hearty and versatile, high in protein, and just too easy NOT to use. This salad combines the flavours of cumin, yogurt and citrus to create a simple side or light lunch.


Mexican Chickpea Salad July 23, 2008
Are you feeling a little tired or overworked? Make this salad and sit outside under the sun- the flavours of ripe tomatoes, lime juice, cilantro and chipotle chiles will pick you up and transport you to a Mexican patio. I guarantee it.


Warm Butternut and Chickpea Salad with Tahini February 12, 2008
Served warm, this salad is perfect- delicious, hardy, comforting, with a hint of tangy tahini. Butternut squash and chickpeas combined with tahini, lemon juice and olive oil makes this one of my seasonal favorites. Complete with crusty whole-wheat bread and butter.
