Chickpeas rule the world! Also known as garbanzo beans, chickpeas are favored around the world because they're superhealthy, walletsmart and yumful in a rich nuttybean kind of way. Add them to salads, soups, stews and smoothies for chickpea proteinpower! Mash them up for dozens of hummus flavors, roast and spice them for a fast snack, stir up some socca if you're feelin' kinda flatbready or fry up some pakoras if you're feelin' kinda frittery. ;)
