Is there a Trader Joe's nearby? Chickpeas are great with their simmer sauces, especially the Thai green chile one.

Falfel. Dump beans, seasoning and onion if you wish into a food processor. Pulse then take out and add flour 2 tbsp at a time until you can form together easily. Make into small patties and spritz with oil . Bake 350 for 20 to 25 . Stuff into pita bread. Eat.

Chana Masala is a great dish with chickpeas.

If you have some beans and maybe some spaghetti squash you could make a bean & chickpea salad with some spaghetti squash with pesto or olive oil, garlic & grated parmesan cheese. At least that would sound kind of nommy to me

MMmmmm chickpeas! caesar or italian dressing, fresh tomato, chopped romaine lettuce, shredded mozzarella....

Or, in the cuisinart with some tahini, garlic, lemon juice, salt/pepper, fresh parsley...inside a pita with some avocado and tomato?

Do you have a can of coconut milk? You can make a quick and easy chickpea curry by swirling some curry powder and salt into the coconut milk, adding the chickpeas and letting them simmer to meld flavors. Add some onions/garlic if you want. Serve over rice. Super simple!

mash up the chick peas, mix with some minced garlic and olive oil for a killer humus dip!

Dip whatever raw veggies, cheeses or meats of choice you have around! Left-over dip does really well on sandwiches, too!

Mmmm...season and bake them...make them crunchy little gems. Put them on top of a green salad...season,simmer and curry them...or use the food processor, garlic, lemon juice salt and pepper, olive or coconut oil if you choose...voila! HUMMUS!! Very versatile.

Channa masala!

My boyfriend's step-mom makes an amazing chickpea pasta dish with diced red bell peppers, mashed chickpeas, fontina cheese, asiago cheese, white wine and vegetable broth (I think). It's so, so good.

This is one of my favourite things to make with chickpeas. It's super easy, pretty quick, and tasty. I usually serve it on top of some toast or something similar.
