Happy Friday!
Fridays are all about comfort food favorites and today I’m sharing one of mine, my chickpea “chick’n” salad. It’s creamy, satisfying and packs all the flavor of the classic version, without a shred of actual chicken.
Here’s the truth, chickpeas are loaded with plant-based protein, fiber and minerals that help you stay strong and energized. You don’t need animal protein to survive, heal or feel nourished, nature already provides everything you need in these humble little legumes.
This dish has quickly become a go-to in my kitchen. It works beautifully in a sandwich, wrapped in crisp lettuce leaves or simply scooped up with whole-grain crackers. Every bite is hearty, plant-based goodness that always leaves me feeling light yet full.
Curious to try it yourself? Reply back as I would love to share my recipe with you!
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
