I love rounding up recipes that are based on one main ingredient. I’ve done one with zucchini and one with cauliflower, but today, I’m featuring one of my favorite legumes, Chickpeas!
Chickpeas are a great source of protein and fiber, so they keep you feeling satisfied. They are also rich in folate and iron, both important in keeping your blood healthy! While I love simply sprinkling chickpeas on my salad, I found ten unique ways to cook with chickpeas that I’m sharing today.
Why not end your day with a deliciously sweet night-cap of peanut butter cookie dough?

P.S Before you go…
I added a new page to my site with all my favorite supplements. It’s under the “workout programs” tab. There are a lot of supplements out there (some are bogus, but I believe in a few essentials). You can find them all here!
Now you tell me…
