Chickpea Scramble
If you're looking for a healthy alternative to scrambled eggs or an omelet for breakfast, this Chickpea scramble is for you. :)
Chickpeas are high in fiber and protein, and help control blood sugar levels. I personally enjoy adding spices, like cumin, garlic and turmeric to-taste. The fun part about chickpeas is that you can add any spices you want to create a dish you love. This breakfast is very filling and keeps you satisfied all morning into lunch. Prep time is about 10 minutes. Enjoy!!
