  • Serve them as a snack, appetizer, or a quick road trip snack.
  • You can serve them as a replacement for croutons in a salad for an added crunch.
  • Add them to a quesadilla, taco filling, and other items for meat replacement. 
  • Add them on top of a burrito bowl.

How To Store Chickpeas

These do not store well. I always recommend eating within two hours of making, but if you have any leftovers, place them in an open jar and leave them at room temperature.

Do not refrigerate these, as they will become hard a as a rock.

Are chickpeas good for you?

Chickpeas are very healthy, and they are rich in minerals, vitamins, and fiber. They have also been found to reduce your chances of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other diseases.

They are so high in protein and make a great replacement source for both vegetations and vegans.
