    I use a different mock tuna recipe that uses nutritional yeast and kelp, and that seems pretty near the actual tuna salad taste. But I digress, I wanted to share this eggless cookie dough recipe with -you guessed it- chickpeas. :)

    I make this regularly, and it is delicious. Fresh basil and feta are two of my favorite things. https://cookieandkate.com/2018/marinated-chickpeas-recipe/

    I made this salad last week and it was seriously good!

    Roast carrot and potato diced and a can of chickpeas. Drizzle a bit of oil, dried herbs like italian mix, oregano, basil, etc... 425 for for about 45-50 minutes
    Serve on top of kale and brown rice.
    Make a super easy pesto with all the basil you can find, a bit of oil, water, garlic, salt and pepper.

    It's soooo tasty!

    There is also a chickpea flour banana bread I made but you want the "pea" form of chickpeas I'm sure.

    If you are still looking for chickpea recipes, this Moroccan Chickpea Stew is amazing! I make it on a regular basis, and sometimes add chicken breast and chicken stock instead of vegetable stock. Either way it is superb.

    This is very easy, there is no reason to even count anything, it works without any need for accuracy, and you can easily adapt to your taste:
    Rinse dry chickpeas, let them soak overnight, boil in salted water for about an hour, under tender but not falling apart. Transfer to an oven proof dish, add tomato sauce or tomato paste and water (whichever you have/prefer), and make sure there is enough liquid to just cover the peas. Add a pinch of sugar and pepper and whatever other herbs and spices you like. In my experience, bay leaves work well, also red pepper, maybe a bit of cinammon, but I have also experimented with oreganon, marjoram, thyme and all were nice. Cover with a lid, or just tin foil if the dish does not have a lid, and cook at low to medium heat for at least an hour. If you want them softer, add more liquid and bake longer, if you like them to still hold their shape one hour is enough. The last 10 minutes or so, remove lid/foil and increase the heat to high.
    If you do not want a vegetarian meal, before baking you can mix in slices of sausage, or bacon, or even browned pieces of pork.
    Also depending on your taste preferences, you can mix in a finely chopped onion and/or a few pressed garlic cloves, sliced carrots and/or a couple of leeks.

    This is very similar to the meal prep I did Sunday. I've been eating this salad all week at work, and I've really enjoyed it. Prep was so fast and easy! And it was really economical too--I bought all of the ingredients at Aldi's.

    I watch a youtube channel called "domestic geek" she is very veg friendly and has a ton of chickpea recipes. I have done a few of them and one of my favorites is her Mediterranean Chickpea burger. Delicious!

    Sometimes I use them for the protein in stir fry. Mix soy sauce and lime juice for the sauce. With the chickpeas, I like to use sugar snap peas and thinly sliced yellow squash as the vegetables. I've also tried this with English peas and corn and it works well too.

    Here's another favorite I made this weekend--Jessica's Marinated Chickpeas. Its main ingredients are chickpeas, fresh basil, roasted red peppers and feta, plus a simple vinaigrette. It takes less than 10 minutes to prepare.
