Chickpeas are a great choice for your savoury snacking. Packed with plant-based protein and complex carbs, you’ll also get fibre, folic acid, iron, phosphorus, and magnesium.

Try roasting them, blending them into dips like hummus, or combine them with fresh herbs, spices and tahini in these delicious falafel bites.

You can also make these chickpea bites in advance, then store them in the fridge for up to four days, or freeze, then fry and stuff into a wrap or pitta with a crisp carrot salad and chilli sauce when you get the munchies.
