Crispy Chickpeas
Our approach to the perfect snack is to create a ‘mini-meal’. Which means putting together a couple of spoons of legumes or grains, a couple of spoons of probiotics, yoghurt and pickled veg is always a good pairing, a sprinkle of nuts or seeds, and then any seasoning or herb to hand for extra flavour. Not only will this provide an extra delicious bite, but will also work to tide you over until your next full meal and fill you with lots of essential vitamins, minerals and gut-friendly foods. This is why leftovers are always worth keeping - for extra delicious snack material that you can throw together in a bowl in minutes!
