Not again! You opened a can of beans last week to sprinkle on your salad, and you had every intention of using them in another recipe, but you totally forgot. And now that awful atrocious, rotten bean smell is the price you have to pay. Never let another can of beans go to waste! Here are three recipes you can make to ensure you use up that entire can of chickpeas.
Metabolism-Boosting Smoothie
Start your morning off with a boost! Made with Greek yogurt, almonds, broccoli, and 1/4 cup of chickpeas (or cannellini beans), this 343-calorie metabolism-boosting smoothie offers 30.4 grams of protein.
Vegan Chocolate Frosted Doughnuts
You'll never guess that the secret ingredient behind these soft and moist chocolate frosted doughnuts is chickpeas. This recipe uses one cup.
Cocoa Cinnamon Sugar Roasted Chickpeas
Use up the five ounces you have left and make these cocoa cinnamon sugar roasted chickpeas. Either bake up one-third of the recipe or add your five ounces to another can and match one large batch. Not a fan of chocolate? Make these honey-roasted cinnamon chickpeas instead.
