As a foodie, I like to eat well. I don’t want to waste a meal on something I don’t enjoy. BUT – trying to stay in shape, I’m always on the hunt for healthy recipes that also taste good. This is one of them. The chickpeas are packed with protein, and the kale is super-healthy. It’s also easy to make and doesn’t cost a lot.
