You, yeah you there on the other side of the screen, you should fry up some garbanzo beans (aka chickpeas). It's delicious and costs like $2 tops. (lemmynsfw.com)

What entree do people pair these with? Or do you just, like, eat them with rice or something?

@MangoKangaroo @21Cabbage There are lots of options, but personally I like serving them with rice, fried onions and kale! You can either pan fry them, or spread them on a sheet tray in the oven with the onions. I simultaneously make seasoned rice cooked in vegetable stock and a teaspoon or two of the same spices I cooked the chickpeas and onions in. (I like ras el hanout, but you can use whatever seasoning you like.)

@baggins I'm afraid I'm not familiar, but that does sound good!

It's nice if you put them on something that will keep them fairly crispy. Like, using them as the protein in a vegetarian taco. But sometimes I like to have them with a kind of "appetizer dinner." Fruit, cheese, crackers, tzatziki, and crispy chickpeas are a great combination.

Ooh, I like the idea of using them for a taco (or burrito). I usually use black beans, but that sounds like it could be a fun change of pace.
