Between the yum & yummer book before and the love real food book now, I’ve made lots of bean-based dips. My fave from yum & yummer was the sweet potato and white bean dip (link here). It had some classic flavours but the sweet potato gave a nice twist. This hummus today also had some…

Recipe #39: Chickpea Tikka Masala with Green Rice
I love indian curries. I don’t usually make them too spicy but they’re so flavourful because of all the different spices. This chickpea tikka masala was perfect in that regard. It was seasoned so well and made the house smell incredible. Another reason I love indian curries is the coconut milk. It adds so much…
Chickpea “Tuna” Salad
I hope you liked my chickpea pancakes from yesterday (link here) and today I’m moving on to a nice chickpea lunch/snack. I’ve known of this recipe for a while but never made it because I usually just pop open a can of tuna. I actually love tuna salad, I used to eat it all the…
Recipe #54: Speedy Chana Masala
If you’ve never heard of chana masala, it’s essentially just chickpeas in this indian curry tomato sauce. There are a few different spices (cumin, curry, garam masala, chili powder), but this was not a spicy dish. It was super flavourful and well balanced. I could have used a little heat, personally, but it was still…
Recipe #37: Maple Cinnamon Roasted Chickpeas
I think roasted chickpeas are one of the best snacks ever. They are super healthy but they don’t taste like it. The method in this recipe does take a little longer than I would usually spend making these, but it was worth it!! They got super crispy and they almost didn’t even taste like chickpeas…
Chickpea Soft Tacos
Dinner was a little random but turned out delicious. I had a couple of my chickpea veggie burgers (Chickpea Burgers Recipe) still in the freezer so I decided to make them into a filling for soft tacos. (Side note: I have to play around with the veggie burger recipe cause every time I made them,…
Chickpea Carrot Veggie Burgers (Meal Prepping)
I got these veggie burgers from costco (dr praeger’s brand) a few years ago and they were so good. They’re made with all natural ingredients and have a really nice taste. The thing is, veggie burgers are so cheap to make so I figured I didn’t have to buy those ones again. I finally took the plunge…
Tomato and Chickpea Salad
I have a lot of chickpea recipes (mostly sslads) on my blog – if you go to the bottom of my site and type chickpea in the search box, you will see the whole collection. So this salad had chickpeas, tomato, green onion and a simple olive oil and lemon based dressing. I mixed the…
Couscous and Chickpea Salads
Tonight I made lots of salads to go with dinner. I honestly just didn’t want to do much actual cooking, and salads are delicious and easy. So the chickpea salad has corn kernels, cucumber and a lemony-honey dressing, with some basil and parsley too. And there’s no oil which means you can eat more without…
