I had a bag sitting on the shelf so I decided to get them soaking (I did the boil for two minutes, cover and let soak for 2 hours).  I was originally thinking of just making some hummus but I know a bunch of you probably have more creative ideas-and now that it's Lent I'll be making a lot more meatless meals so I'm looking for ideas. 

Links are a bonus!

I love using chickpeas for a tagine. I recall this one being quite good: www.care2.com/greenliving/moroccan-chickpea-stew-recipe.html

I sauté them on high heat with olive oil, salt, and garlic until they get crispy and them I toss them with pasta and Parmesan.

Falafel! I make this recipe but I add an egg to help it hold together better. (I've made it without and they fall apart quite a bit while cooking.) My meat-and-potato-eating H even loves this recipe.

Chana Masala.
yum.

We make this every couple of weeks and we both really like it. I also add in cooked spinach when you put the tomatoes in so that I don't have to worry about making a side vegetable.

Make this! Kind of a salad or a dip.

Mix these together (all drained/cooked or chopped first)

Chick peas
Black beans
Kidney beans
Whatever other beans you like
Shoepeg corn
Onion
Jalapeño
Tomatoes
Celery
Bell peppers

Basically you can add or omit whatever you want.

And boil 3/4 c cider vinegar with 1 c white sugar and 1 tsp black pepper. Let cool then pour over the salad.

Eat with chips or over lettuce or whatever.

This was my major addiction while PG. I ate it all day everyday. Mix in salad with chicken was the best.

janegold, I made this last night and it was really good! Thanks

For dinner tonight, I made some quinoa with chick peas, chopped tomatoes and parsley mixed in. I flavored it with some lemon juice, garlic and ginger. It was good. I cooked some chicken tenderloins to go along with it, but it would have been fine without meat.

I also love roasted chick peas. Actually, I guess I just plain love any chick peas.
