I do usually bounce between black beans and chick peas. Every once in a while I switch it up with navy or kidney beans, but black and garbanzo are probably half my diet by weight and volume
Lentils are great though, even more nutritious… Unfortunately I really don’t like them
Add in some onions, maybe sliced zucchini and eggs, some cayenne pepper and garlic? Amazing. Just ate a wrap of that without the rice and with some lacinato kale and Sriracha… Like 5 minutes of effort, better than most restaurant food, and I threw myself against a boss in elden ring several times while it was cooking
Plus, if you have an air fryer you can roast the chick peas with heavy spices and a little oil, and you get a delicious and filling snack
It’s pretty great - you can add paprika and cumin for a Mexican twist as well
I’ve never gone far with citrus and herbs - herbs for sure, but I’ll have to start experimenting with citrus too. I know it’s underrated, but I’ve never thought of adding it to beans… I can see how it could work though, lime goes great on fajitas or onions, I bet I can get a few new twists out of this
And if it gets old you can use like garbanzo beans or lentils instead

That’s fair. I like them fried with garlic and salt
Fried chickpeas and rice slap yo
Hell yeah.

We usually make lemon and herb sauce and spinach/kale with it, but that sounds so good! Never dawned on me to do a more “red” spiced version with egg.
