Week of Chickpeas

I’m not really one to ‘meal plan’.  Even if, interestingly, that is often touted as quite an effective way to reduce food waste in the kitchen.  If I’m honest, I just never get organized.  Instead, I like to invest in one ingredient, and see what I can add to it from the excess odds and ends I have lying around [perhaps you can relate…].  So.  Dry Chickpeas.  A cheap and cheerful pantry ingredient.  And THIS WEEK’S #1Dish1Week HERO.  Let's investigate.

Almonds: 2 for the Price of 1

The world has become obsessed with Almond Milk.  Not going to lie, I do like it.  It’s a different taste to regular milk, lighter.  I mean it’s effectively flavoured water.  Which I don’t normally like.  Not a cucumber in my drink kind of girl.  But almonds?  And honey.  And vanilla… yes please.
