Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the chickpeas lightly. You want them to be partially mashed, with some whole chickpeas remaining for texture.
- Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the finely chopped onions. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they turn translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Sprinkle in the turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine the spices with the onion and garlic mixture.
- Add the mashed chickpeas to the skillet and stir to mix well with the seasoned onions and garlic. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chickpeas are heated through and lightly browned.
- Add the spinach to the skillet. Cook until the spinach is wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and coriander leaves. Mix well and let it cook for another minute to let the flavors meld together.
- While the chickpea scramble is finishing up, slice the avocado.
- Divide the chickpea scramble into serving bowls.
- Top each bowl with avocado slices.
- Enjoy your Chickpea Scramble Bowl immediately while it's warm.
Tips:
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly to remove any excess salt if using canned chickpeas.
- When cooking the spinach, add it last as it wilts quickly and retains its vibrant green color.
- If you prefer a spicier scramble, consider adding a pinch of red chili flakes or hot sauce.
- Garnish with extra fresh parsley or coriander leaves for an added burst of flavor.
- Serve with whole grain toast or a side of fresh fruit for a well-rounded meal.
This Chickpea Scramble Bowl is a delightful way to start your day. Rich in nutrients and easy to prepare, it's a great alternative to traditional breakfast options. With a blend of spices, fresh vegetables, and creamy avocado, every bite is satisfying and delicious. Enjoy your healthy and flavorful breakfast!
