The possibilities are endless! Endless!!!
As of two days ago, Summer 2019 officially kicked off. That means tanks, swimsuits, flip flops, and too many posing on a unicorn floaty in a pool pics in our Instagram feeds. So while we all take some time to enjoy the warm and sunny weather, the heat also means I’m looking for easy to prepare dishes that will keep me full but not heat me or my kitchen up (at least not too much).
This usually means summer is also salad season, but while I love me a good salad every now and then (heyyy Harvest Bowl @ Sweetgreen), sometimes I want something a little more substantial than your normal bowl of greens. For me, that means looking at how to incorporate plant based protein and veggies into my diet that require minimal cooking. I’ve turned to chickpeas as one of my go-to sources of summer protein as a result. Not only are they quick and easy to prepare, but they are also cheap, protein and fiber packed, and easy to dress up and flavour every which way you want. Sounds good, no?
Let’s dive in
