Chickpea & Red Pepper Salad Recipe

February 16, 2020

Chickpeas are the main part of this flavorful dish and offer a variety of healthful benefits. A few of these include being a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Additionally, they are an excellent source of protein and keep you feeling full longer. Along with their nutritional benefits, chickpeas have been found to be low on the glycemic index, are pH balancing, and poses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Personally, I think they make my skin glow.

About Laura G

Hi, I'm Laura G. A photographer, blogger and self-proclaimed food connoisseur.

As a child, I was exposed to a wide variety of foods. My mother had my siblings and me try foods at least once and if we didn't like what we tasted, we didn't have to eat it again. Luckily, I enjoyed almost everything that I tried. Unfortunately, in my adult years, I've been living with an autoimmune disease that has forced me to reevaluate my food choices. Even though I can no longer eat the foods I once enjoyed, many great alternatives have presented themselves. I believe we truly are what we eat and I look for the best food ingredients to fuel my body. I hope the recipes here on this food blog inspire you in your own food preparation endeavors.
