Breakfast can be the most difficult meal of the day. Many healthy breakfast options satisfy your sweet tooth. But what if you're craving something savory for breakfast?! Enter, this chickpea scramble.
Chickpeas are part of the legume family. That means this chickpea breakfast scramble is a protein-packed, satiating, and delicious meal.
Besides packing in plant-based protein, chickpeas are filled with fiber. Most of us actually aren't getting the recommended daily amount of fiber -- around 25 grams.
Fiber is food for your gut bacteria and is the nutrient integral to disease prevention and overall health. This is not something you want to go without. But, good news, fiber is found in all plant foods! God is so good, giving us plants to keep us healthy.
Eat up on your beans, because they are nothing but good for you!
Step 1. Sauté the onion over medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until soft, using a splash of water or vegetable broth if the onion starts to stick.
Step 2. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds.
Step 3. Add the chickpeas and the spices. Sauté for a few minutes until the chickpeas warm.
Step 4. Smash the chickpeas with a spatula, creating a 'scramble', and leave some of the chickpeas whole.
Step 5. Remove from the heat, serve, and enjoy!
Once the chickpeas are done, your options are endless, serve:
Yes, this is a chickpea breakfast scramble, but who said you can't have breakfast for lunch?
Jesus, thank you for giving us the ability to heal our bodies with your wondrous creation, beans. You are so good to us. Give us the fuel to do your will with our lives.
