Ingredients
  • 1 can can organic chickpeas, drained (save some chickpea water for cooking)
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika or sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • Optional: avocado, leafy greens, tomatoes
Instructions
  1. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
  2. As the pan is heating, mash chickpeas lightly with a fork. Don’t mash all of it, keep some chickpeas partly mashed for texture.

  3. Add mashed chickpeas along with spices to the pan and add 1 tbsp of chickpea water. You may need to add more chickpea water to prevent sticking and ensuring all spices are mixed with the chickpeas.
  4. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until all spices are mixed with chickpeas. Transfer to a dish.
  5. Serve with avocado, arugula and tomatoes or any other veggie combo you’d like. Make it your own. :)
