I’m trying to learn and lean more towards frugality since things have been getting too expensive and would love suggestions

What i like/aim to learn

  • anything simple that can be made with chickpea without adding too many of other stuff
  • overly time consuming to prepare i will avoid for now so i stay motivated to learn
  • willing to learn baking (prefetably if it goes well with flaxseeds/mashed banana or some other very accessible binding)

I want to keep it healthy so pairing legumes with grains/seeds/nuts (though nuts less accessible atm for me to overly rely on it)

    You can always rinse a can of chickpeas and eat it just like that with a spoon. Or add some or all: olive oil, yogurt, chopped tomatoes, pumpkin/sunflower seeds, roasted garlic, fine sliced onions, parsley, tahini, lemon. That’s just one possible flavor group.

    If you want to cook from scratch, don’t skim on salt.

        its best to find cooking ideas that match your most local affordable grocery markets, no matter what those be. if you ask enough strangers while shopping, someone will tell you what to do.
