Here is a video I made for VegNews, demonstrating a hearty vegan burger – the chickpea burger! It’s delicious and filling and can be served anyway you like. Nix the bread and serve over a grain, or you can form the burgers smaller and scoop the up and eat them with green leaves. Enjoy!

Spicy Chickpea and Kale Tomato Soup
January 26, 2013 – 8:08 am
This soup bears all the Middle Eastern flavors I love in the spices and chickpeas, and reminds me of some classics, such as falafel and hummus. It has a deep, smoky flavor that fills you up and takes your senses to all the right places.
Carrot & Hummus Sandwich
August 3, 2012 – 8:08 am
Looking for a quick lunch or dinner that packs in the flavor, nutrition, and bulk all in one – look no further. This recipe is quite balanced — you get the creamy, the crunchy and the chewy in each and every bite. And you probably already have the ingredients on hand. Grated carrots are sautéed [...]

Farinata (or socca) is an Italian-style flatbread made from chickpea flour and water with other add-ins according to individual preference. It’s a dense bread that accompanies a meal with some added flavor, texture, and warmth. Farinata is also a breeze to make!

Chickpea Burger

I’m always looking for new ways to make a veggie burger. So far I’ve attempted a brown rice burger and a 100% vegetable burger. With some chickpeas hanging around, I figured the best way to avert the traditional hummus was to make a burger. I was also in the mood for something that was more main-course appropriate. This [...]
Beet Hummus
April 2, 2012 – 7:38 am
The color is enough to make this recipe something to get excited about. Sure, plain hummus never gets old, but sometimes it’s fun to jooj things up a bit in the kitchen and bring some personality to old-time favorites. This recipe brings an earthy flavor to regular hummus and some sass to an ordinarily blah, [...]

Rainy days in the Middle East inspire a different kind of comfort. The comfort of garbanzo beans, of course. But chickpeas involving some deep flavors and, heck, a little bit of green to give the guise of having done something remotely healthy during a day inside. A day that starts with something as light as [...]
Roasted Garlic Hummus
July 1, 2011 – 2:32 pm
What’s not to like about hummus? It’s deeply satisfying, nutritious and an all-around crowd pleaser. And while few people, I among them, ever get sick of the go-to version, it’s always fun to try some new things (have you tried my roasted red pepper hummus?) Tonight I was in the mood for a rounder flavor, [...]
