Recipe tips
  • This recipe is a great source of fibre, which is essential for good digestive health.
  • If you don't have any tinned chickpeas you could use dried ones, and follow the pack instructions to prepare and cook them.
  • To add extra flavour, add 1 tsp of tahini, or 1 tsp smoked paprika or cumin. To give it more zing, add the grated zest of lemon.
  • Freezing instructions: Freeze in portions then defrost in the fridge, or microwave, taking care to stir regularly.
