A sweet treat without the guilt!
Protein and vegetables in a truffle? Yes! Try it. Just try it once...
I'm eating the last of the ones I photographed...I should call my husband and share... But they are so good it's hard to resist...
This microgreen and chickpea recipe will become a family tradition- it's that good! By the way- chickpea and garbanzo bean are two names for the same bean. So if you cannot find chickpeas, look for garbanzo beans.
Clarification: if you are using canned chickpeas, be sure to drain them before using.
