Usage tips

Fold the beans into a salad for added texture, or stir them into a stew where their hearty flavor complements vegetables and other ingredients. For a dip, blend them into hummus, they can also be used to make falafel or fried as part of a meal. Their range of uses makes them a practical pantry ingredient when one batch of beans needs to work across different recipes.

Because the beans are already cooked, they offer a convenient alternative to starting with dried chickpeas when a recipe calls for cooked beans. Keep a can available for quick additions to lunch salads, weeknight stews, or homemade dips. The pack of 12 is suited to households that use chickpeas regularly or like to keep several meal options within reach.

Why it’s worth it

These garbanzo beans bring both flavor and useful nutrition to the plate. A 1/2-cup serving contains 13g of plant-based protein and 4g of fiber, with 120 calories. That makes them a filling component for vegetarian meals, whether served in a salad, blended into a dip, or added to a stew. They are also low fat, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, and casein-free.

Their versatility is the main advantage over buying beans for just one recipe. A can can support a range of cooking ideas, from creamy hummus to falafel and warm, hearty dishes.
