Smashed Chickpea and Avocado

May 9, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Aaaaand welcome to my obsession. My love language. My crack = ^^^^. I made this recipe FOR-EVER go, before my Instant Pot series and before Whole 30, so it has taken me this long to actually get around to posting it because I had to finish those two things out first. Now that I am done with my Instant Pot series and done with my Whole 30 recipes, this delicious little baby FINALLY has its time in ...

Roasted Tomatillo Stewed Chickpeas

January 10, 2018 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

Chickpeas are my new food obsession. They are like these tender and hearty morsels of yumminess, and they have way better flavor and texture than other beans - less mushy, more tasty! This recipe right here, friends, is THA best chickpea recipe I've ever had. Here's the situation we're talkin' about here - tomatillos, red onions, and garlic roast in the oven and are then pureed. Meanwhile, the ...

Vegan Chili Stewed Chickpeas

June 21, 2016 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

So basically these last few weeks have been a hey-my-husband-is-finally-home-from-his-deployment-so-let's-celebrate-and-go-out-to-eat-every-three-seconds type of situation. We haven't been eating super badly (with the exception of a few several meals), but it definitely hasn't been kale salad and protein shakes over here. We went to Topeka with my sister-in-law and niece yesterday, so we ate at a ...

Crispy Garlic Bread Chickpeas [21 Day Fix]

March 11, 2016 by Annie Chesson 35 Comments

There are just those days when you crave salty and crunchy snacks like nobody's business...#amIright? When I get in these moods, I always want something like chips or popcorn. Popcorn isn't as far up on the "unhealthy scale" as chips...unless you drizzle a tablespoon stick of butter overtop...which of course I never, ever do...obviously. Some people crave candy and chocolate all the time - I crave ...

Spicy Chipotle Chickpea Burrito Bowls

July 17, 2015 by Annie Chesson 46 Comments

If I had unlimited money and could eat 10,000 calories a day without gaining a pound, I would literally eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner every single day at Chipotle or Qdoba. Let me describe my obsession to you with one story (I might have told this before....ALL MY STORIES ARE STARTING TO RUN TOGETHER). I'm going to preface for two seconds...literally every time we went out to eat in Georgia, ...

Butternut Squash Soup with Curry Roasted Chickpeas

March 31, 2015 by Annie Chesson 12 Comments

Before I begin, I have a tip for this recipe. When you are transferring the leftovers to your Tupperwares after the soup is finished, try as hard as possible not to spill half the soup onto the counter/all over the front of your shirt and jeans and then spend 20 minutes cleaning up as your dog eats half the leftovers. Okay now that we covered that, moving on! This soup tastes as good as it looks! ...

Chickpea and Veggie Curry

March 16, 2015 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

March has been CRAZY! I think this month has been the least I've blogged since I got started with The Garlic Diaries. So much has been going on lately, and I was planning on blogging ahead enough so that I would still be posting every other day, but I totally lost track of life and just got behind! It felt great to get back into the swing of things today and make/photograph a few recipes. ...

Crispy Chickpea and Edamame Oven Snack

November 7, 2014 by Annie Chesson 25 Comments

Snacking is so much fun - it's even better when your snacks are good for you! I don't know about you, but when I want a snack, it's usually something salty I want. Better yet, something salty and crispy. Enter crispy chickpea and edamame oven snacks. These will satisfy any crunchy, salty snack craving. I love the mixture of the edamame and the chickpeas, they play off of each other so ...
