Chickpea Hashbrowns
This is a great way to get chickpeas onto your menu, especially if you don't enjoy them as much in their more raw state! Chickpeas have a high fibre content, especially compared to potatoes. Potatoes are a starchy carbohydrate which I find can spike my sugar level, compared to the more fibrous complex carbohydrates which characterises chickpeas.
They still have a reasonable amount of carbohydrates though so go easy on portion size and see them as a treat, not an everday breakfast option! The chickpeas seem to soak up flavours just as well as potatoes too; they are an underestimated ingredient I reckon! As you can see from the pictures, there's really no need for toast when you have these as they make a great substitute to mop up the sauce!
