chickpea peanut sauce
Peanut sauce made with chick peas, not vats of peanut butter is not only a healthy way to get garbanzos in your diet, but when pulverized in the food processor, mimics the texture of high fat peanut butter. This is a delicious sauce to accompany anything on your plate – chicken, pork, burgers, fish, salads, wraps … limited only by your imagination!

creamy chickpea pasta sauce
Pasta sauce that starts with, or should I say ends with one of the healthiest beans puréed to resemble full-fat cream, is a pasta sauce I’m happy to embrace. Richness can come in many forms, remember cauliflower cream sauce! Come to think of it, you could us that in place of the chickpeas but for…
pulled pork loin
The best pulled pork is made with a long slow cook or braise in a succulent marinade where heat and time do the work. Shoulders and butts are favoured but a long slow cook is kind to all sorts of cuts.
