I’m trying to eat more beans as I eat less meat and making them from scratch is not an option. Pre-cooked beans are very hard to find where I live apart for chickpeas apparently.
Chickpeas are probably my favorite bean!
Chana masala is one of my favorites, it’s basically chickpeas in a spiced tomato sauce and its absolutely delicious
I also make a salad that’s chickpeas, shredded carrots, celery, green onion, and dill that’s lovely
Last one, but falafels are outstanding, and not that hard to make. I always start those from dried chickpeas though, I’m not sure if canned would hold up as well tbh
Get a pressure cooker, and cooking any dried beans becomes quick and easy.
For chickpeas, we often do curries. This one is great, too: https://www.budgetbytes.com/sriracha-hummus/
And the stock can be had with optionally some pepper added to it or used for making other soups too.
