I LOVE Minimalist Baker & can’t wait to check out these chick pea recipes. I live on an island with 50 people and have received 1K of chick peas which typically I use weekly for my hummus.
Now I can broaden my horizons so thanks a lot!Reply

Chickpeas creeped me out until an Indian friend recently introduced me to a Chickpea Curry. Since then I have made Chickpea and Potato Curry, and Crispy fried Chickpeas. My pantry is stocked. Humus gives Chickpeas a bad name and I will never eat it. Looking forward to trying some of these recipes.
