Dear Chickpeas

Dear Chickpeas,

fullsizerender

Who wronged you as a child? What happened that made your insides turn to chalk? Why are you so much more palatable in hummus form?

Based on a recent google search I did for “chickpeas are gross” to see if there’s a whole underground swelling of chickpea haters (sorry, chickpeas), I stumbled upon this article. If  at worst you taste like “old person” and at best, “beanish”, what reason do you have to exist?

Sorry for all the questions. Also, feel free to pass this along to garbanzo beans if you’re not the right one to ask.

Steadfastly not yours,

Natasha

I'm a mom, a wife, and a creative director, but those are very limiting labels. I'm also a cheese lover, karaoke performer, award-winning beer pong player, misophonia sufferer, and a dog person. I'm a puzzle enthusiast (jigsaw and crossword), word nerd, and Facebook addict (sadly, not recovering; Sorry, Matty). I watch too much TV, eat too many nachos, and take too many pictures of my children, and I'm not sorry about any of it.

  1. I already left a note on your Facebook but I feel passionately about this issue. Chickpeas are delicious and sooooo good for you (according to me and google). Roast those babies up and add a little lemon/olive oil dressing and you’re in business.

  2. I am well acquainted with your distaste for pretty much all beans… In fact, today I made a black bean soup in the slow cooker and for a split second thought about asking you if you would want me to bring some for dinner… Silly Lindsay.
