Chickpeas are such a versatile thing to use in the kitchen; you can eat them either hot or cold, canned or dried, they can be in your starter or your main, or as a side dish. Roast them, use them as a substitute for croutons in salad or turn them into a snack... Whatever the dish, we're sure we can all agree that the chickpea really is great. 

Not forgetting they're the main reason we're all addicted to the tasty, silky-smooth snack we love and know as hummus. God bless the chickpea!
